The Bridge

Mackinac Bridge, also spelled Mackinaw, is a 5 mile long suspension bridge spanning the Straits of Mackinac. It connects Michigan's Upper Peninsula to the Lower Peninsula. It is the longest suspension bridge in the Western Hemisphere, and the 22nd-longest main span in the World.

We crossed the bridge with our 5th-wheel RV when we came to the UP. And we got to see it from the bottom when our ferry to Mackinac Island went under the bridge - a special route that only goes a few times a day. It's pretty much impossible to get the entire bridge framed in a photo, but we did get some good views of it from the island and on our return ferry ride.
