Was run off the road by an angry driver years ago and am a wimp now!<br />What fun you had meeting all the cute furfriends and their pawparents! As it struck you about how big the Great Lakes are, it struck us on how the European countries were the size of states or counties in west Texas. Once heard the Europeans have time cause there is not enough room, US has room but not enough time (always in a hurry and impatient). Look forward to your next post. BTW, the Mackinaw Bridge is a real trip to ride across in the wind!Janicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10359355308140058671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7874342578431143001.post-48655755880225027422016-07-08T20:05:34.471+05:302016-07-08T20:05:34.471+05:30When one driver arrives first, s/he has the right ...When one driver arrives first, s/he has the right of way, as the second driver must complete the stop prior to advancing into the intersection.

When I was a child, we crossed the straights on a ferry. Mom could barely wait for that bridge, built when I was an adult. She and Dad only drove it once.

The 4-way junctions in Nati city were the busiest I encountered... and yes I get that the essence is that of a roundabout - but OMD half the folks seem not to know that!!!

Maybe it was one with just the single handle that needed rotated for temperature control? And what is the 4-way on the streets? A 4-way stop as opposed to a round-about? It is always interesting to see these small differences! When we did a tour in Europe (7 countries I think), our guide always had to tell us how to use the bathroom lol! Looking forward to more of these observations! Yes, unlike the Great Salt Lake (which is NOT so great) the Great Lakes are worthy of their name!

It was funny to hear her tell me about the shower the next morning. She said it was scalding HOT and so she would pop an arm in and out and then a leg in and out...kinda like the hokey pokey song. LOL<br />I must admit that it was a tricky shower and she mastered it by the end of the stay. Yam and I loved eating out of our food box and Oreo thoroughly loved her attention. <br />Looking forward to the rest of your trip.<br /><br />Your friends<br />Diana and Oreo <br />P.S.
