Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore Park in Empire, Michigan (click here for more info)

Every time someone asks me what is the most beautiful place I've seen on this trip, I always answer: Sleeping Bear Dunes in Michigan. Today I had the opportunity to visit Sleeping Bear a second time. The weather was completely different from my first visit - you can see the pictures of my first visit by clicking on the title of today's blog. That day I only had a disposable camera. This was back when I first started traveling alone.

Today was such a misty and foggy day that you could hardly see Lake Michigan down below. Luckily it wasn't too terribly cold but it was very windy. As I was walking, the wind kept pushing me in a different direction than I wanted to go. I was hoping for better weather but as much as I love this place, I'm glad I got to see it under two very different conditions. Foggy weather is a different kind of beauty all of its own.
