Hello Michigan! We've arrived in our 9th state and the Eastern time zone.
Today was a short riding day, but still a big travel day. We started the day early with breakfast and luggage to van so that it could be driven around Lake Michigan to our hotel in Holland, MI. But after breakfast we had some down time until our ferry ride across the lake. We had a short ride to the ferry and then 2.5 hours on the ferry to Muskegon, MI. It was a rather relaxing ride.
After the ferry we made short work of our 38 miles to our hotel in Holland, MI. This was motivated by the fact that we didn't get off the ferry until 4pm, thanks to our arrival in the Eastern time zone, and we all wanted to get to hotel, eat, and get to bed.
