PURE MICHIGAN




After storm dodging we finally met up with friends in Michigan and spent a wonderful, fun day with them at their home - such amazing hospitality and great company, it was sad to leave them. They gave us some ideas for the next part of our journey.
We just missed seeing a snapping turtle lay her eggs on the campsite, when we got there she was scooping the soil over them, then off she went back to the lake.



We headed north up the eastern side of Michigan this time, last year we took the western side.
We found another Bavarian type town at Frankenmuth and had a look round Bronner's Christmas Store - supposedly the World's largest Christmas Store! Looked like it should be in China! Although there was a pretty replica of Oberndorf's original Silent Night Memorial Chapel.
