soo locks {boat tour}

We played tourist and took a tour of the locks by boat and learned some history of the locks and the Soo.


 locks closing
 fully closed
we rose up the 21 feet to continue up river
 viewing platform--where we watched the host enter the locks earlier in the day...also where Mim and Uncle Joe came to wave to us on our tour.


 Canadian locks closing so we could drop the 21 feet to go down river
 another freighter entering the American locks

 the Coast Guard boat 'Mackinaw'...an ice cutter
 another tour boat
 our boat, the 'Holiday'
