Salt Lake Sand Dunes

I found another sand dune for us to check out this year.  While it was a bit of a drive from our house, it was well worth it!
 

 19 of us boarded this super cool vehicle to ride around the dunes for a tour.  She made sure everyone had the hang of putting their hands up before we hit the dunes.  I think the kids got it :)

We really flew around those dunes!  I was shocked at how fast we went as well as how smooth the ride felt.  Going up and down the dunes was a lot like riding a roller coaster.  The boys loved it!



 Silver Lakes Dunes is a state park that lies between Lake Michigan and Silver Lake.  When we got to the Lake Michigan side we were able to get out and stretch our legs a bit.  The boys just wanted to jump into the water.  It was gorgeous!

 It really felt like we went extra fast on the drive back!  They loved it!

 After the tour we went over to the beach and explored the dunes a bit more.  The cousins loved climbing this one - although it was nothing compared to the one Will and Max climbed last year.  They looked so cute up there!

This light house is the tallest one on Lake Michigan.  You could climb to the top, but we decided we had done enough climbing on the dunes.  I tried talking to the boys about the lighthouse.  You can see how interested William was.
