What I did on my summer vacation

We have just returned from our 6-day summer vacation and had a great time. Very relaxing and a great view out our motel window. It was situated right on the water's edge (Munising Bay - Lake Superior). Beautiful sunsets and the bugs weren't too bad, which is always a concern for me since just one mosquito bite will get huge and cause my nearby nodes to swell and hurt. Saw lots of beautiful waterfalls, and went on a 3-hour lake cruise to see the Pictured Rocks. They're quite beautiful! I got to humming the Gilligan's Island theme song...you know...about the 3-hour tour? Kept waiting to be ship-wrecked, which, incidentally, is another cruise you can take — the Shipwreck Tours. The boat you take for that one is glass-bottomed and they show you all the ship-wrecks in the area. (Not to worry, though; no tour boats are among them.) We took that cruise a couple of years ago so we didn't retake it this trip. They're all rather expensive. Paid over $100 for the 3 of us to take "a 3-hour tour...the weather started getting rough, the tiny ship was tossed...if not for the courage of the fearless crew, the Minnow would be lost, the Minnow would be lost..."
There's an ear worm for you. You're welcome. :)
