Mackinac Island - Part 2
In town there are two-horse carts for people to ride (we did & YOU should).
They go to the Surrey House (also home to the Butterfly Farm which will be featured in a later story)....There you switch to a three-horse team and larger cart for a tour thru the woods.
One of the things many folks would miss is the fact A-L-L the things coming to the island must be moved by horse cart as there are NO trucks!
All over the streets are flowered areas....front yards of homes and businesses are flowers.
The place is lovely, but be prepared for the "fresh farm" scent of their favorite flower fertilizer....provided by the hundreds of horses.
