Duluth Trip

We made the trip to Duluth in good time. It was dark by the time we got there, and the kids enjoyed seeing "all the lights" of the city. For us, it really IS a big deal seeing that many lights, and especially the hills. This picture is looking down on part of the city.


There were a few ships coming and going so I snapped this picture even though it's blurry. There was so much fog due to the cold and heat of the air and water. Lake Superior does freeze over in the winter.


Here is the lift bridge. It was colder than freezing so we had our "picnic" and then took off for home instead of staying to watch it lift for the ships--we'll have to plan that for the summer. :)

It was FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEZING when we were there. The craziest part was trying to make sandwiches for everyone while standing at the back of the vehicle. :)

That would have been horrible( making sandwhiches out side on that day) it makes me cold thinking about it. I always really like Duluth at night because of the lights. I live in a big city and never notice ours but always do Duluth's. Anna

Thanks for commenting, Anna. I wonder if you don't notice the lights because of not having that downward slope...
