Mackinac Island

September 28th, 2006 No comments

Today was a rainy day, but we decided to take the ferry to Mackinac Island where we visited the famous Grand Hotel (Rates starting at $400/night). At Mackinac Island, only bikes and carriages are allowed.

One of the specialities is Fudge, which you can buy everywhere on the island

Rainy Day

September 24th, 2006 No comments

Hi Folks,

Yesterday we drove all the way up from Toronto to Saginaw. The weather was not very good so we didn’t stop at Lake Huron.
It rained sooo much that we didn’t go outside for dinner. We bought a grilled chicken and some beer (greetings to your friends at Miller, Mary 🙂 and ate in the hotel.

Today we are going to see Frankenmuth … so stay tuned for a new report.

Have a nice weekend!

GO PACKS!!!

In the skyscrapers right of the CN towers you can buy a Condominium .. for around $5 Mio …

Have a wonderful weekend !

346 m over the ground …

September 22nd, 2006 No comments

Good morning from Toronto,

Yesterday we went to the CN Tower .. the elevator brought us in 58 seconds up to 346 m over the ground. It was very funny as the elevator has windows and you can see how you go up.

The view is incredible and then we start our way to the glass floor (Hey, Ralle, we missed you there !!!) ….

Today we are going for harbor cruise and walking through the city.

Stay tuned for the next reports and have a nice weekend …

Hi friends,

We are on the way to Detroit. Just checked in, one of Monas bags was to heavey … so we moved some of the stuff into another one.

Now we are in American Airlines Admirals Club and have some drinks before entering the aircraft in about 45 minutes.
