Today we went sight-seeing. In the morning we just went to the local grocery store (a Kroger's). It took Mommy and Daddy and Cousin Arvin a long time to find everything they needed (including my favorite yogurt) but several nice people helped them out.
After my afternoon nap we went to Detroit. On our way there we went through an interesting shaped bridge. Mommy tried to take a picture later in the day. We also passed a huge Uniroyal tire. Then we got to Detroit. Even though it was closed we got to see many of the cars on display at GM World in the Renaissance Center. Uncle Max works nearby so I got to see him and play high-five with him.
We wanted to see the Detroit Jazz Festival and the riverfront. We actually spent more time walking by the water than at the jazz festival. We walked along the riverfront where we could see Canada. You could get to Canada by taking a tunnel or a really long bridge. There were some cool sprinklers/fountains. A lot of boys and girls were in swimsuits and were really enjoying them. I was able to get my hands wet (and Daddy's shoes). We walked down the riverwalk to the carousel where I went on my first ride. I was a little nervous but I will want to go again. Then we went to get some ice cream. Both Mommy and Daddy shared their ice cream with me.
My favorite part of the walk was watching all of the boats and the jet skis on the river. They made cool noises. Some of the jet ski drivers were coming around and doing tricks for everybody on the pier. They were moving too fast and were too far away for us to get a picture.
We walked back to the jazz festival and heard some of the music. We also saw some other cool fountains. We then went back to visit Uncle Max at his job. Mommy and Daddy were convinced I would fall asleep in the car on the way back to Ypsilanti but I fooled them.
Tomorrow we will do some more sight-seeing.
