Labor Day weekend Part 2 : Sault Ste Marie

Once we got to Sault Ste Marie we crossed into Canada so my parents would get a chance to use their passports and Dan and I were hoping to get a stamp. But I didn't really express that well so they never stamped our passports :( But we did go to the Locks and get to watch a 1000 foot ship come through. To give you an idea it is almost as big as a Air Craft Carrie.

I took pictures of the ship as it was being lowered to the Lake Huron side of the Locks


It is always amazing to watch the process happen as they lift and lower these giant ships. This one was caring Copper Ore. After watching the ship we headed back to Mackinaw to grab some pizza from our favorite place,
