Hello....

I am expecting to drive out to St. Paul for an international soccer tourny 
with my 15 year old's team... I have 9 days to get there and then 5 days for 
a tourny.... does anyone have a suggestion for a place to paddle, perhaps on 
the great lakes (or anyway along the way is also great...).

I was thinking perhaps a side trip to the Apostle islands...

Any extremely scenic places to see on the water ?

I will have my three boys... ages 15, 17, and 18... all fairly athletic but 
with limited paddling experience themselves....

A guided trip, since they will be there is fine with me... I have only one 
boat myself...

thanks...  all suggestions welcome whether practical or not!!  :)

The boys have never been to the great lakes, but have all done a little lake 
type paddling... and some rafting.
