After a good night sleep I woke up around 8:00am and had some yogurt and coffee. I called Raymond and we were off on a bike ride. I discovered I had a broken spoke on my rear wheel. However, it was not affecting the wheel much so we set off for the trails near Marquette Mountain. We made our way on the multi-use paths and encountered a short section of single track that was very fun. We rode the kid/Grom loop which was very fast and flowing. This is Marquette's version of an easy trail. We then made the ride back to the hotel. After a little beak Raymond and I went to one of the local bike shops and I got my wheel repaired and front derailleur adjusted. After lunch Michelle and the boys went swimming and I worked on JJ's bike. I replaced the rear derailleur and shifter.
This then lead to our trip to Munising to go on the glass bottom boat and view some old shipwrecks. It was raining when we arrived and Lake Superior was rough. They were still going out and said that money would be refunded if we did not see everthing.
Part of the old ship. It was been here for over 100 years. Preserved by the waters of Lake Superior.
A bald eagle!
Lighthouse from the 1800's.
The waters were to rough in Lake Superior so shortly after seeing the lighthouse they turned back and headed in. There were two wrecks that we did not see and were refunded half of our ticket price. We then went and had supper at Sydney's, which I would recommend. We then made our way back to Marquette. The kids went swimming and we visited with Raymond and Angel at the poolside.
Tomorrow we will do another bike ride and head out to Presque Isle. Afterwards is the spaghetti feed and packet pick up for Ore to Shore!
