The day had finally arrived Saturday August 15th and I could not wait to get in the car and head up north! Of course something has to go wrong before things can start to get going, we packed up the car and turned it on, once we went to back out the wheels had locked, and we couldn’t get anywhere luckily our neighbor works for Ford and he came over and had to take the steering wheel apart and mess with the wires. Once everything worked again we were on the road and I was hoping I would be able to make it there without having to kill my brothers on the way, you see my brothers are twins and they NEVER stop talking and they talk so fast that it all runs together and after awhile you could see how that would get annoying. The first night we stopped at Birch Run and shopped for a little and stayed in West branch so we could drive up the rest of the way to Bay Harbor the next morning. Once we arrived at the Quality Inn parking lot we stepped out of the car and immediately started gagging it was like someone had taken the fresh air out of us, we open the door and it definitely did not look like a hotel the walls were plastered with white paint and chicken wallpaper bordering. Whatever we thought it was only for one night, we all hit the sheets early because we knew we would be getting up early. I awoke to my mom, her voice shaken then all of a sudden I heard jumping and laughing and slamming of doors. I didn’t really think anything of it considering I was half asleep. I started to drift back asleep when I heard the hotel key being inserted in our door and someone trying to open it my mom quickly got on the phone with the front desk and they said they had security on it. Things had seemed to calm down I had looked at my phone and the time read 3:00am, I decided I would fall back asleep. The next morning we went down to the main lobby to check out and we were informed that there was a wedding party staying that night. All six of us – Me, Katelyn, Joey, my mom, and my twin brothers climbed back into the car all half asleep and were on our way to our final destination! After a two hour car ride we got to the condos! Even though I had been there before I couldn’t remember it being this amazing, the condo we stayed in accommodated 10 people, it had a balcony with a gorgeous view of Lake Michigan. Overall the trip was really fun and I can’t wait to go back!
