Day Fifty-Six

Day fifty-six we drove to Traverse City for a little beach time on Lake Michigan.  Jim managed to work his way into the water, but Sam only made it in to his waist before he decided it was too cold!  J  He then spent the next hour-and-a-half digging in the sand.  We all had an ice-cream break and walked through the tunnel under the street to cross over and check out the river.  We had to laugh at the ducks swimming against the strong current, just keeping time with it so they never moved downriver while they waited for something edible to come by and then snag it.


We then drove up the street a few miles to stop at the Pirate’s Cove Adventure Place, where they had a myriad of activities.  We played a round of mini-golf, and Sam loved the Bumper Boats!  There was also a ropes climbing course, which I would have liked to try out except I wore sandals that day instead of sneakers.  They also had racing go karts, a water slide, and a zip line!  It was a really cool and busy place!  After a couple of hours, we were ready to wrap it up for the day and head back to the coach.
