Day 73: In Detroit, MI

"Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City..."

We all did, in fact, and we're hoping for a less hot and humid day (as indeed we got), as we've places to go and things to see. Last evening, I sat out in the cockpit with my margie, and caught up on doing the blog (although each day's story might never really be finished, as some remain a moving feast). A lot of people openly admired our boat (this IS the 102-yr-old Detroit Yacht Club, after all). One chap called out and said, "That's the best office I've seen for a while." I heartily agreed.

Anyhow, Detroit means Henry Ford and with one day off, we headed out to The Henry Ford... by far the best museum and collection I've yet seen. there isn't enough space to write the words to describe it, and not even an intellect like Einstein would be able to imagine it. We'll show a few images to try and convey a sense of the place. The Henry Ford is situated with another of the Ford family's gifts to Detroit - Greenfield Village. It's all about how we used to live in the horse-and-buggy days and is a great learning resource for kids, but since we know a fair bit about that subject already, we decided to spend most of our time at the The Henry Ford.

So that was our day. I'll post a few (FindPenguins only allows 20 images and 2 videos).

More to come.Baca selengkapnya
