We often stay there as a halfway point to visit our relatives. My husband was born there and has fond memories of watching freighters at the Soo Locks with his Grandpa. He likes to share that experience with our son.

During our trip back to the UP, we were able to visit the Soo Locks at night. They are great to visit during the day, but at night it is completely different. We did catch one freighter in the locks, and try as I might I just couldn’t get a non-blurry pic. It would have helped if I remembered to bring the tripod with us LOL.

But my husband took some nice shots of the fountain in the park. At night, it is lit up and absolutely beautiful.

There are speakers around the fountain, but we haven’t been able to catch it when they were playing music along with the water display.

Tomorrow, I’ll be back to posting pics from the Copper Country :)
