Port Huron and dinner in St. Clair

This morning we loaded the girls in the car and did a mini road trip up to Port Huron and Fort Gratiot. This is about 15 miles up the road, that's north. It's Port Huron where the bridge crosses into Ontario, Canada. When Larry and Gail get here we'll cross this bridge and head to Niagara Falls. The St. Clair River was such a pretty blue. The locals said it was very murky but it sure was prettier than the brown water we've seen on most rivers so far. Panoramic view of the waterfront in Port Huron with the City of Sarnia in Canada across.

Beautiful colored water. So clean looking.

Blue Water Bridge into Canada. This bridge links Port Huron in the US to Sarnia in Canada.

Same tanker with a sailboat heading the other way.

Unfortunately, other than a handful of small museums there is no waterfront/tourist village or sightseeing area. That was a disappointment. But what we were able to see was scenic and beautiful.

It wasn't until we were standing next to it that we realized the Lighthouse ship was not in the water.

Checkers or Chess anyone?

There's actually two bridges when seen from below.

I love mermaids

Oh Canada, Sarnia Harbour

Lake Huron is past the bridge

Later that evening we drove back into St. Clair, a cute town we're really starting to enjoy, and had dinner at PepperJoe's. Situated right on the Pine River in St. Clair. A beautiful sunny evening, no crowds, good food and reasonably priced. Plus lots of entertainment with the constant boat traffic in preparation for St. Clair's RiverFest happening this weekend. We plan on coming down with the boys.
