It seems I’m beginning at the end of my Michigan adventure. First I told you about the breakfast diner we enjoyed on our way home. Today, we will talk Frankenmuth, our last day of fun before we headed back to Ohio.
We had less than a day here but we squeezed out of that day as much as possible. First, we toured a jaw dropping historic church before parking downtown to enjoy the Bavarian architecture, cute shops, a late lunch and more. Sometimes, just walking around a place is more entertaining than anything else.
The downtown trash cans say thank you!
It’s all in the details.
There are beautiful flowers everywhere you look.
Plus, a covered bridge!
It’s a quaint village that welcomes visitors and rolls out the welcome mat for them. Come back tomorrow and I’ll tell you about that historic church.
We went to Frankenmuth and Charlevoix, Mi. this summer too!
Loved the area and searching for Petosky stones. While in Frankenmuth, did you happen to see the “kaleidoscope garden thingy”? (I had never seen one of those, so was quite impressed!) Sounds like you had a great trip. I look forward to hearing more!
Ooh! I didn’t! Guess I’ll have to go back….. 🙂
In case you return to Mi., the garden kaleidoscope thing was in front of Zak & Mac’s Chocolate store in Frankenmuth. (I guess there’s one at Franklin Park Conservatory also, but I’ve not seen it.) Did you see the “mushroom houses” in Charlevoix? If not, there’s another reason to return. Check them out!
I loved the mushroom houses! They are all so unique and welcoming- like from a storybook!
How cute to find Bavaria in Michigan!
It is very unexpected!
A little Europe here in the states – wonderful!
It’s a fun place!
