UP! Adventure: Day 3 Tahquamenon Falls

On the third day of our trip, we headed over to Tahquamenon Falls.
First we walked around and took pictures of the falls. There were a lot of stairs!!


 Then we went for a hike. It was such a hot day!



Laila was pretty hot by the end of the hike, so we headed down by the water.

 I was surprised to see so many people playing in the water near some very fast moving parts of the river and near some of the falls. We personally had no desire to die a watery death...so we found a calm spot in the river where Laila could cool off.






 After Tahquamenon, we headed to Sault Ste Marie, where we spent our last night. Yes, it was a whirlwind UP trip.

We didn't have any grand plans for Sault Ste Marie, but wanted to cut off some of our driving time for the following day. We got dinner at West Pier Drive In (which we read had some great burgers) and went down by the Locks to eat. After that, we just walked around and got ice cream and then headed back to our hotel for the night. This was fine with us, because we were exhausted by this point!

In the morning, we headed back home. We were only in the UP for a few days, but with all the driving we were ready to get home. Can't wait for our next trip!
