Grand Marais Trip - Day 3

For our third day we started with a drive up the Gunflint Trail. We stopped to take a short hike then continued on to the Gunflint Lodge. The kids fed the ducks on Gunflint Lake and we drove back to town. We were surprised that we didn't see any wildlife on our drive. We got back to town for lunch and I made a trip to a chiropractor since my back went out on me. After naps we went back to the harbor for more rock throwing and then to Hughie's Tacos for dinner. We thought the tacos were delicious. We went to get jammies on and back to see if we could catch a glimpse of the northern lights.

We got smart when waiting for the northern lights on night two.
We did not see any, but the peace and quiet while watching the sunset was worth it.
