Duluth vacation

Last week we went to the Duluth area for vacation.
Some of the places we went to were:

 Gooseberry Falls

 Duluth - watched BIG ships come in (this one was 1000 feet long)

 Split Rock Lighthouse

Two Harbors -  watched another big ship come in

though it wasn't that big as Kylie could hold it in the palm of her hand :p

I took almost 500 pictures so needless to say, I won't post them all, these are the highlights.  Some day I plan to get them all onto my Shutterfly account.

I highly recommentd Duluth for a vacation...we could easily go again!
