We were unable to get the 10 AM tour at LAmbeau Field (we are the Griswolds). So we took some more photos and headed down to GB. Tried to get gas at a place that was swarming with old ladied and left.

Got to the ferry and had someone else drive the PIG onto the boat. They also loaded on some big trucks.

The ferry was very nice (the SS Badger) and ran on coal. we brought our lunch and had a nice 4 1/2 hour cruise acrossed lake michigan.

we got to the campground (photos coming later) and had some pretty good pizza for dinner.
