Today we went back downtown and we got to go on the People Mover!
The People Mover is an above ground railway that goes in a loop around some of downtown Detroit. It was a lot of fun! We got to see a lot of cool things!
We got on the People Mover in Greektown (which is where we took lots of photos when I arrived!!) SORRY in advance if some of the photos are a little blurry!! Sometimes it was hard to take photos fast when the train was moving!
The second stop on the People Mover is Bricktown! They have lots of cool restaurants and bars at that stop! I really wanted to go to the Detroiter bar! It looked pretty neat!
After Bricktown the People Mover heads toward the GM Building (The General Motors building I told you about seeing on my first night in town!) The building is huge and beautiful and used to be called the Renaissance Center before GM took it over. It is on the shore of the Detroit River and across the river is Windsor, Ontario, Canada! I never knew Canada was so close!! My host says there's a bridge and a tunnel and it's around a 10 minute drive or less to get through!! I have a photo of the bridge i'll show you soon!
The GM Building has 2 beautiful courtyards with cool and new cars on display!
Here's one of the cool photos of the end if the GM building and you can see the building that says tunnel to Canada and all the American flags. That's where people exit the tunnel and are welcomed to the United States!
Here's a cool shot of me and Jefferson Avenue which runs parallel along the shore of the Detroit River.
When you zoom in a little more you can see Cobo Hall/Center (I'll talk about it again later!)
My host told me that this is Hart Plaza where there are lots of cool festivals in the summer such as DEMF (Detroit Electronic Music Festival, which people come from all over the world to attend), the african and caribbean festival, the downtown hoedown, pride fest, and so many more festivals and events!
All the stops on the People Mover have really cool artwork at them! This is one of my favorites!
Another photo of me and the GM Building!
We passed this really really neat looking boat called the "Detroit Princess" it takes people on dinner and dancing cruises on the weekends and all the time in the summer! It's a cool looking boat and my host says it's a lot of fun!! I'd definitely love to cruise down the Detroit River to good music and food!
This is another photo of the Detroit River and the city across the river is Windsor!! They have a nice casino over there called Caesar's! Just like we have in Las Vegas, but the one in Vegas is WAAAY bigger! LOL
Look!! Here's the Detroit River and the Ambassador Bridge that connects Detroit, Michigan, USA, and Windsor, Ontario, Canada!
After that we came to the Joe Lewis Arena stop on the People Mover and we got to see Joe Lewis Arena, home of the Detroit Red Wings hockey team!! My host is a HUGE fan and says they're REALLY good. She said the just made history and had a 23 game winning streak at home in Detroit. They have won many Stanley Cups (the best award in hockey!)
The next stop after that is Cobo Hall/Center. Cobo is really cool because not only do that have the coolest art work (my hosts favorite stop) but Cobo hosts lots of events, expos, exhibits, concerts and more! It is known for the annual "North American International Auto Show!" My host says it's so much fun and people come from all over the world to see it and it lasts over an entire week!! Currently they have "Autorama" which displays old cars! Cars that look like the ones in the mural at the stop!
Another cool tiled artwork at the Michigan Avenue stop!
Soon after that we got to Grand Circus Park. Grand Circus Park was soooooo neat!! It's the stop where they have lots of restaurants, bars, a park and to top it off Comerica Park Stadium, Ford Field, The Detroit Opera House, Gem Theatre, Detroit Music Hall, Fox Theatre and so much more!!! Comerica Park is where the Detroit Tigers play baseball! My host is also a huge huge fan of that sport! My host says it used to be America's favorite past time. lol. Ford Field is where The Detroit Lions play football!! My host thinks that is probably Americas CURRENT favorite past time. She doesn't really care for it though. The Opera House and many other theatres offer many musicals, plays, concerts and entertainment!!!
Well that's all for now!!! I'll update soon!
