After driving up to the Straits of Mackinac, the water that separates Lake Michigan from Lake Huron and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan from the Lower Peninsula, and after taking photos of the bridge from a park at the south end of the bridge, we crossed the bridge to the city of St. Ignace on the Upper Peninsula and after our evening meal went back to the bridge for more photos. These were all taken from St. Ignace, except the last which was taken out of the window as we crossed the bridge. The insets are of: 1) Mackinac Bridge at sunset. 2) the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island from St. Ignace. 3) sunset from Mackinac Bridge.

I am interrupting my tour of Yellowstone National Park to post some photos from our recent trip to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
