Road Trip

After purchasing our Boxster in June, we took it on it's first road trip this past weekend. We drove from Southeastern Michigan (Oakland County), to our condo at Boyne Highlands, in the northern lower peninsula. From there we drove north and crossed the straights of Mackinac, on the Mackinac bridge, to the U.P. (upper peninsula). We visited Whitefish Point, Whitefish Bay, and hiked at Upper and Lower Tahquamenon Falls. Also, every year on Labor Day the Mackinac Bridge is closed to cars, from 6:30-noon and you can walk the bridge. There are usually 40,000 or so people who walk it. This was our first time, it was quite an experience. The bridge sways WAY more than you realize. People were walking like they were drunk.

The Boxster performed flawlessly and was much more comfortable on the long drive, than the NC Miata that it replaced.
