Mission Union Pier: The Tour de Fun Part IV

A carousel that didn't scare the diaper off of Connor! It must be that it's a Big Ten Horse carousel. I wish I would have taken the picture of the creepy carny sitting in the bench shaped like a clam...oh well, I guess I'll get the picture when his mugshot hits the news.

30 minutes north of Union Pier was a beach town called St. Joseph. This was the weekend of their Venetian festival, so we decided to check out what they had in store. With 90+ degree weather, we found just what the rugrats ordered...WATER!
