We had orginally planned to spend day 3 on Mackinac Island, but they were predicting rain so we ended up switching our route. We instead headed to Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore near Munising. We took a boat tour along the shoreline to see the rock formations. It was 48* and rainy (about 40* on the water) and they cut the tour short because the waves were getting too rough. We were still able to see some beautiful sights and after lunch, the rain stopped and we were able to hike to some waterfalls.

Miners Falls (Blow this picture up to really appreciate the size and height of the waterfall!)
Path through the woods on the way to Miners Falls. The forest floor on this 1.5mi trail was covered in spring flowers and this picture does not do justice to how beautiful it was!
