Morning in Munising |

8:12 AM |
As part of our recent trek to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan we went to Munising and took a Picture Rock boat cruise. We took such a cruise back in 2005. That was the Sunset cruise. This was to be the 11:00 AM departure. There are also kayak tours and wreck tours available.
It was a mild, partially sunny day. Canadian wildfires had created a haze which was visible. Lake Superior can be cold, and summer water temperatures are usually in the 50s, but can peak at 60F.
The town is walkable and there are a variety of murals and art on display.
There is ample street and lot parking, but the best street parking is at about 8:00am. We picked a spot with easy in and out. By 10:30am parking was filling up.

I definitely recommend a stop at the Picture Rocks Interpretive Center. It is very enlightening and the 13 minute video is worth watching.
I'll post photos of the cruise on a separate blog, but here is G, ready to roll:
