Al, thanks for chiming in. I guess we'll have to catch you another time. Your area looks might interesting too but we've yet to get over there so far.
Chris, I'll pass on your suggestions to my daughter and son-in-law. I doubt that they'll come equipped to do any lake swimming. My grand kids are 3 and 5. They'll be plenty excited just to be on the boat or to walk on the sand. They just returned from spending some beach time at San Diego a couple of weeks ago so they'll have to adjust to the temperatures of Lake Superior alright (even the air temperatures). My last cruise of the Apostles was in late July 03 and we had night time temperatures in the upper 40's & 50's. I knew I'd get cooler weather by coming in June but that was intentional on my part as I like cool weather cruising.
