Poppins and I visit our next island in the Great Lakes' Icelander region - Rock Island, Wisconsin. Formerly Thordarson Island, it is a unique place with Nordic buildings inspired by the Icelandic roots of the man who built an estate on the island.
Chester Hjortur Thordarson was an inventor whose inventions have affected the lives of Americans with his work on electric grid components. But his island estate in northern Lake Michigan is one of his best known legacies.
We first take a ferry across "Death's Door" to Washington Island - the second largest Icelandic settlement in the United States. Then we catch the ferry to Rock Island State Park.
