Michigan City Camping

This past weekend we went camping in Michigan City, IN with my mom and grandma. They rented a cute little log cabin that had some pretty nice amenities, kitchen with microwave and fridge, bathroom with toilet and shower, plus it even had air conditioning. We of course stayed  in our RV, the campground was a little tighter than we usually like, but the cabin definitely made it worth the stay.
I think the highlight of everyone's trip was the time we spent at the dunes. Ben and Neil surprised us by actually being able to make it to the top of the dune. Neil was smart enough to get a piggy-back ride on the trek back to the car though. We had plans to go to a steam engine museum, but that did happen because a GPS is more important than you think. Beside, that will leave us something to do the next time were camping in the area.

We also had fun at a cool restaurant called the Tree House Cafe. It really has a tree growing in the middle of it. It was a great outdoor venue with picnic tables set up near a sand lot that was full of cool stuff to keep the kids occupied, tire swings, volleyball net, old tires to roll through the sand, wiffleballs. They even had a ping-pong table outside.



Here's everyone on their way to the dune's beach.

I've never been to those dunes, but have wanted to go. Sounds like a thumbs up,
