Beautiful Mackinac Bridge.....

We arrived in Mackinac City (pronounced Mackinaw), MI about 4 p.m., Eastern time. The temperature had dropped into the high 50s, so a jacket was definitely required. The Mackinac Mill Creek Campground, on the shores of Lake Huron, is a huge facility, with over 600 lots for RVs plus 70 cabins.

The Mackinac Bridge is visible from the campground. This 5 mile long bridge is the third longest suspension bridge, in the world. It connects the Upper and Lower Peninsula of Michigan across the Mackinac Straits. The Straits separate Lakes Huron and Michigan.

Maximum speed for cars traveling on the bridge is 45 mph, trucks (including our RV) are only allowed 20 mph.

So many wonderful things to see, in this beautiful land of ours.....
