We left Phoenix on Saturday morning, July 13th, and flew to Detroit for the 11th Rust Reunion. Prior to going to Whitehall, MI for the reunion we had a little over 24 hours to spend in Detroit.
Saturday night we had dinner at Republic. The place was packed so we ate at the bar - this was probably my favorite restaurant of the trip.
Sunday morning we cooked breakfast at the Airbnb (we had gone to Whole Foods the night prior) and then got coffee at Populace.
We walked around the little bit of the city that is actually nice.
The famous FOX theater.
Dave wanted to go over to Canada (we had planned ahead and brought our passports).
There really wasn't much to see across the border except for a view of Detroit from across the river.
Dave got some doughnuts and coffee at his favorite place.
We drove to Canada through the tunnel and back to the U.S. on the Ambassador Bridge.
Our last stop for the day was to Belle Isle Park.
This is the famous fountain - if you watch Indy races you will know what I am referring to.
We got back to the Airbnb mid afternoon and took a nap and then walked to dinner. I think I got my share of Detroit and it is not a city that is on my list of places to return to anytime soon.
