I am excited to learn that the shipping season is underway in Duluth Minnesota on Lake Superior. Duluth is about 150 miles north of St. Paul, MN and a lovely city to visit. The news that ships from Antwerp will pass through is especially exciting! Here is the article as seen on Minnesota Public Radio News:

The company out of Antwerp is Spliethoff and has a Great Lakes Department. Here is a photo of one of their ships, the Fortunagracht. For more information about the company, the website is https://www.spliethoff.com/ .
We await news of shipping dates so we can plan a trip north to hike, sightsee— and watch these great ships pass through the channel in Canal Park.

Thanks for this very interesting post! Antwerp is practically in my backyard, well, figuratively speaking. 😉
Maybe this is the way to travel to Minnesota because I don’t fly…

As one of my Catholic School nuns would say, “Mr. Hendrickx, there’s no excuse now.” All you need to do is bundle up Jimi in his carrier. 😉

Hahaha… yes, I can picture the scene! Let me think about it (and I definitely have to talk to Jimi). 🙂
