Day 7
Detroit
November 14, 2021 in the United States ⋅ ❄️ 1 °C
Gestern Abend haben wir uns überlegt dass wir den Amish Country byway entlang fahren. Das ist eine Route auf der sehr viele Amish leben.
Während der Fahrt hat es irgendwann richtig angefangen zu schneien und wir kamen in wunderschöne Schneelandschaften.
Da Sonntag ist, war nicht sehr viel los auf dem byway. Hier hat im Gegensatz zum Rest der USA alles sonntags geschlossen. Wir haben trotzdem ein paar Leute und einige Pferdekutschen gesehen. Im großen und ganzen erschien es mir aber doch modernere als ich erwartet hatte, wir haben unter anderem einige Solarpanel auf Dächern gesehen.
Nachmittags sind wir in ein Steakhouse essen gegangen, mein Steak war sooo lecker.
Gegen 18.30Uhr sind wir dann in Detroit angekommen und gleich nach dem Einchecken zur Shidobee Party.
Morgen ist schon das nächste Konzert!Read more

Day 150
Die verlassene Stadt
June 10, 2017 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 30 °C
Detroit war eine boomende Stadt bis in die siebziger Jahre. Insbesondere die Autobranche war hier gut vertreten. Mit dem Einbruch der Wirtschaftskrise verließen jedoch viele aufgrund mangelnder Arbeitsplätze die Stadt und ließen diese leer zurück.
Aktuell soll dieser Platz aber mehr und mehr von aufstrebenden Künstlern genutzt werden, die die Stadt wieder beleben. Das hatten wir zumindest so gehört wussten aber nicht ob man dem Glauben schenken konnte.
Wir fanden eine verlassene Stadt die nur im innersten Zentrum durch Kunst, Grün, Sand und einigen Menschen belebt war. doch vielleicht ist dies ja nur der Anfang... .
Nach dem Mittagessen machten wir uns durch den Tunnel aus Detroit auf nach Kanada.Read more

We love this street in Detroit. First, shopping at City Bird, which has great Detroit and Michigan themed gifts. Next good beer and food at Jolly Pumpkin. Finally, a new place - Bon Bon Bon. Delicious little chocolates in cool packaging and innovative flavors. And they ship! https://bonbonbon.comRead more

Riverwalk

My host let me know a free place to park to check out the riverwalk. I started walking around, but didn't do a lot of it. It was pretty and apparently Canada is literally right across the way. I started walking to another point of interest and to get some exercise.Read more

Heidelberg project
October 7, 2015 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C
This place was suggested from a lot of sources, however I wasn't impressed. It was actually kinda sad. It was an abandoned area that they tried to decorate with random junk to make the city more artistic maybe. It was definitely a unique place and I was a bit entertained that a lot of locals didn't even know about it.Read more

Day 7 - Off day/Checking out Detroit
August 22, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C
Not much happened today. Just hung out in the room for a bit then Bob Connor took Andrew and I out for lunch. We shared a Detroit style pizza at the original Buddy’s location. I still say it tastes like grilled cheese with pizza sauce.

After we drove for a bit and checked out what was going on in Detroit. Lots of places being built up but lots of it still looking pretty worse for wear. We then hit up Lafayette’s Coney Dogs, which I wasn’t super impressed by. The hotdog itself was good, though. Right next door is their competitor (supposedly owned by his brother) called American, I believe. I didn’t stop in there.

At Buddy’s I saw an ad for a cheap house for rent. Doug informed me of how the areaway. Bob actually drove us over and we saw how dilapidated it was. We went back to the room and pretty much lied around the rest of the night. We were supposed to go to Doug’s parents house but we were incredibly tired. I did some stick exercises while watching YouTube.

Today we’re off to the Tip Top Deluxe in Grand Rapids.Read more
