Michigan and Beyond

So, a finish to my trip over to Ann Arbor.

Toronto was a blast. Downtown was a cool experience, but I really enjoyed the whole public transit that we used. I think it would be cool to live in a city where you are required to use the subway. It is just very convenient; something I wish could be in MSP, but probably never will......

The CN Tower was also really cool. We kind of touristy, but it still was fun. Tyler had too much fun watching planes land in the near by airport...... Definitely recommend going to see it if you have the chance.

Once Toronto was done, we made our way to Niagara Falls. For some strange reason, someone once told me that the American side is cooler than the Canadian side. So, we went to Goat Island in New York (the island between a few of the falls. And it was cool, but most things were closed due to the season. There still was a bunch of snow around so we were unable to make it down underneath the falls....bummer

Then we went over to the Canadian side. And wow.....very breath taking. With all the snow that was piled up and carved by the mist, it was very beautiful.

Then we made our way back to Detroit. And got stopped by border patrol. For some strange reason, they did not understand that we only need to stay in Canada for 28 hours.......apparently we are drug smugglers or something. So they searched our car and we very close to being detained. It was exciting.

And back to Ann Arbor. Nice tour of the campus thanks to Tyler. We also hit up the museum on campus and saw a really cool exhibit on architecture. And I got to meet a few more of this friends.

Also, I don't think I have played that much Scrabble in my life....

All in all, I really did not want to come back to work. Was very tempted to call in sick......
