Day #8 of Road Trip #2

Day 8 - Detroit

We wake up to a lazy morning in Detroit. After getting up and ready we are set to hit the town!

But first, breakfast! And it's on the hotel since dad won $$$ last night in the casino!
Deciding what to eat!

We were told that the "People Mover" is the best way to get around downtown Detroit so we decided to check it out. For 50 cents (one way) you can get around really easily!
Waiting for the People Mover
