Our\u00a0 first look at Detroit (????Rock City)<\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Beautiful crossing the bridge into the USA.\u00a0Bridge work was being done so lanes were squishy.<\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
This city has been hit hard by the economy????.\u00a0 Miles of empty buildings on Ford Road.<\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Found a cheap place for supper but decided to eat at trailer instead ????<\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Another night at Walmart<\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
This is quite the place.\u00a0 Museum, 3D Theatres, Village and Ford Factory.<\/div>\n

Great Bear Rainforest<\/h3>\n

3D narrated by Ryan Reynolds.\u00a0 It was funny and informative.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Astronaut: Ocean to Orbit<\/h3>\n
Learned how Astronauts trained under water for space, in a pool as well as the Ocean near Key Largo. Fun fact: it takes 30 minutes and multiple people to put on an astronaut’s space suit.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Secrets of the Universe<\/h3>\n

This movie was filmed in Switzerland and Italy.\u00a0 It is about the history and future of physics.\u00a0 They filmed an experiment trying to achieve a time machine and go back 1 millisecond after the big bang theory. Scientists all over the world are involved in this experiment.\u00a0 Laureen got out of it was the sun is hot ???? Actually it was quite interesting.\u00a0 Mark really enjoyed it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

America’s Wild<\/h3>\n
This movie was narrated by Morgan Freeman.\u00a0 It gave Laureen more travel ideas.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Mark opted for the museum and Secrets of the Universe movie.<\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Vince and Kim chose the museum and the village.<\/div>\n
They thought the village was well done and enjoyed watching the glass blowing artists at work.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
The museum consisted of Henry Ford’s collections. About 20% of his collection is on view (they changed things up a bit) with the rest loaned out to other museums.<\/div>\n
