Trip to Detroit...

Wonderful trip to Detroit..... actually, wat's so wonderful about the trip... i think it is amazing to see such a huge City to be so lifeless... really...

ok, to post a better picture in ur mind.... imagine a city with skyscrapers... and building blocks.... like Kuala Lumpur... or Chicago, without any people.... that's about it... u get a picture of Detroit now...
the buildings are beautiful and modern from far... but, there are all abandoned.... empty... all u can see is really empty shops.... and even McDonalds and Starbucks are closed on weekends.... can't believe it???? it's true... it's really creepy to walk in the empty city.... like a ghost city... can't help but keep thinking about those cities in the shows like Dawn of the Dead, or Resident Evil...
yeah...that's how Detroit is...

the only street that seems to be living is the greek town... which is like 2 rows of shops... mostly restaurants and Casino...

so, we walked around the town, took the people mover (the elevated train) and wandered around...
and had lunch at the HARD ROCK CAFE, Detroit... cool..... but, ouch... my pocket....

so, after lunch, we walked along the riverside... (the Detroit River, or izzit Michigan River) watever?... there we can see Canada.... across the river... it is Windsor, of Canada... it is really near... the distance between is nearer than the Malaysia-Singapore Crossway... (i suppose)...

the most magnificent building is the General Motor Renaissance Center... whew... it is really beautiful... and modern... and at least... there's some people there....
that's about it.. i think i will post some pictures to the Chicago site.... i'll put a link here sometime....

busy for the week... have a midterm coming... ciao...

take care and keep warm... :P
