Thursday

Thursday morning we walked around and shopped downtown South Haven, of course we ended up in a chocolate shop (there's like 3 on every block)!  After our chocolate fix we walked down to see the boats up close.  The Friends-Good-Will ship or the "pirate ship" as Declan called it was really cool.  We looked into going out on it, but 4 years old is age minimum, so we enjoyed watching go out every night.  Down at the piers we feed some ducks, Conall really liked watching them.  We hit up an awesome park up on the bluff.  It was a huge wooden ship/castle...the boys loved it.  Then we walked down the to beach to play!  I can't tell you how much fun they had:)  It was so fun to watch them dig, run and splash around.  Finding sticks and "sea pods" (shells) kept them quite busy!  We had dinner on The Idler, which is a big boat in the marina that has been turned into a restaurant.  We ended our evening with a stop at Sherman's (this turned into a nightly routine).  Declan had Blue Moon and BC and I split Mackinaw Island Fudge.  Conall even got in on some of it!
