here’s a quick posting of the bike riding we did during in the\u00a0afternoon of wednesday, september 21st, after spending the morning doing quite a bit of walking.<\/p>\n

you can rent bikes by the hour, and we started out at around 2:30. \u00a0it was fun to be on a bike on such a flat road on a sunny and beautiful day. \u00a0we stopped at Arch Rock again to get a picture from below.<\/p>\n

\"s100\"<\/p>\n

i wore these earrings all day because they’re the ones i wore on our wedding day. \u00a0i don’t usually wear them, and sometimes i can’t find one, so i was happy to have them on. \u00a0isn’t it crazy and deserted? \u00a0perfect! \u00a0by this point we’d ridden halfway around the island (it’s only 8 miles around!), and you can just barely see the bridge in the distance.<\/p>\n

\"s101\"<\/p>\n

we decided to cut through the middle of the island instead of circumavigating it, and it was a bit hilly, but nothing too strenuous. \u00a0we stopped at the stables to pet some horses. \u00a0the stables were also deserted, except for one woman and her dog who were in charge.<\/p>\n

\"s102\"<\/p>\n

we rode past a funny part of the island, one that i bet not many tourists see – it was a small town with modest houses and some apartments, and i’m sure it’s where many of the workers live.<\/p>\n

we reached the top of the island and then it was an awesome coast all the way down the hill and back to town. \u00a0we were out a little less than two hours, and like i mentioned in an earlier post, i’m excited at the thought of going back and taking our own bikes.<\/p>\n

here’s the Grand Hotel carriage, fancier than all the others. \u00a0i don’t think you can see it clearly, but the horses all wore drapey cover things over them, and the drivers wore top hats.<\/p>\n

\"s103\"<\/p>\n

here we were at the opposite end of main street from our hotel.<\/p>\n

\"s104\"<\/p>\n

by this point we were pretty tired, but then decided we’d take one more little walk…<\/p>\n

more pictures to follow.<\/p>\n

ok then,<\/p>\n

mrs. when do we get to go back to mackinac hughes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
