Our final day of biking before the rest day we woke up at 4 during a thunderstorm where there was a chance of a tornado. That was an eventful start to the day to say the least. To top it off we had to complete our 90 mile ride before 1:00 in order to catch the ferry. Fortunately after a bit of rain when we first started riding, the day went smoothly. We arrived to the ferry that carried us across Lake Michigan with plenty of time to spare. 

Before getting on the ferry a few of us were concerned about being unable to see land in any direction which would be the case during a large portion of our ride. This fear was however quickly forgotten the moment we sat down in recliner chairs an fell asleep. And sleeping is what we did for a large portion of the time. At one point however we were allowed to give a speech to the passengers about our ride and about how they could support the cause. After hearing about our cause, many passengers graciously donated to the ride. 

Once we arrived in Ludington, we were greeted by a reporter was writing an article about us for the local paper. He took a few photos with our ferry the Badger and then we headed on our way to start testing for our rest day. 

Thank you for having us Ludington.
