At the conclusion of the tour of the submarine, we found it had rained while we were in the boat, and there was another rainbow out over Lake Michigan. There is a hint of the rainbow in the photo of the lighthouse above. That rainbow never went completely away until sundown an hour and a half later.

I drove a half mile east to photograph the Manitowoc Breakwater Lighthouse - one of the more impressive breakwater lights. The harbor was full of fisherman, fishing from the banks for salmon. Only a couple of fisherman appeared to have caught any, but those each had several 10-15 pound fish.

The breakwaters go on for a long way at the Manitowoc harbor, and it was about a half mile walk out to the light. Just as I got to the foot of the last causeway, it started raining again. I took a couple of quick photos, but the rain started to come down harder. It was about 50 degrees and slightly windy, so I decided to give up on the light and head back. The rain stopped just before I returned to land.
