We're on a road trip for this #wednesdaywalk by @tattoodjay

We are taking a vacation roadtrip to the upper peninsula in Michigan. It was a late drive up there and we stopped at Warren Dunes State Park to stretch our legs just in time for the sunset.

The seagulls thought we had food for them but we didn't. One hint of having a bag of chips would get you surrounded fast here.

I'll have to post a video of how strong the waves were today. The wind was pretty strong, making some of the waves almost surfable.

Little spider was hanging on for dear life on this sand washoff station.

We finally made it to the cabin after a long drive. It overlooks Elk Lake which has nice clear swimmable water.

My wife instantly had to go out swimming. We'll be swimming alot on this vacation.

After swimming we walked to a nearby creole cajun restaurant called The Pearl.
This restarant has some hilarious voodoo vibes in it.

Gotta love the chicken feet, great for various voodoo potions.

Farther inside there is alot more theming like dragons, snakes, giant mosquitos and loads of hot sauce bottles on every wall.

After all the walking and swimming I worked up quite an appetite. Here is some southern fried chicken with collard greens and some heavy duty mashed potatoes with some kind of decadent gravy on them. I'll have to do quite a few more #wednesdaywalks to work off these calories.

That's all for now, thanks for looking :-)

Nice #wednesdaywalk roadtrip style 👍 Looks like a nice cabin for a late summer getaway. I lived in New Orleans for 5 years. There were voodoo shops in the French quarter. All mostly for fun but some a little scary... never sure what they were serious about and what was just fun.

Some of their spices can be very serious lol. There were a few voodoo dolls and medicine bags in there too. Maybe tomorrow I'll get more photos inside. Unless my wife takes us apple picking all day lol. I love this style of food maybe next vacation will be to New Orleans, I'll need advice on where to go.

Was that a mannequin of a girl? Gosh, I can't determine if it's real or not anymore. The theme looks great tho its concept is unique, and as well as the chicken.

Love that sunset so beautiful
And the lake looks so inviting

Love the vibe of the cafe

Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk :), I truly enjoy exploring the world virtually each Wednesday seeing walks from all around the globe and feeling I am there and experiencing it all myself, such as I did in your post just now :)
