More holiday talk.

When my Mum was over we went up to Northern Michigan.  It's really beautiful up there.  I was apprehensive about going over the bridge - I have a thing about going over water - but it was really worth it.  The views were spectacular.  I have more pics to share.  Sometimes it's hard to think of the memories as my Mum is back in England and I miss her, but I know I should think of the good times AND I plan a trip over to visit her in October so it's really not so far away.

The weather up north was beautiful.  We had a bit of a heatwave with temps reaching 90+ F - quite hot to Munising.  We all came away with lots of colour. 









The pictures are of Mackinaw Bridge. The first two were taken before crossing the Bridge the second two were taken from our trip over to Mackinaw Island.

Sunday Post....

We went to the Silver Leaf Renaissance Faire yesterday. It was a good day out. The mosquitos were out in force and we all have the bites to prove it.

It was the last weekend of the Faire. We picked this one as one of my favourite performers/groups were on - Bocca Musica. Check out their website!

I got some GREAT pics! The weather was great and the performances were fun.







The above guys are The Knights of Mayhem.







The above two pics are of Thomas Wood. He's a juggler extraordinaire and fire eater. Great performance and hilariously funny!



Bocca Musica. Love their drinking songs. Missed the 'Adult' show this year but all their shows are great!





The Rogues. Their music was hauntingly beautiful. It reminded me of the greenary of England. They played Celtic Music and it was spellbinding!




Rogue Blades. Another hilariously funny show.
