Wednesday - September 26th 2017
Our road trip was coming to an end, and so today we were returning to Detroit.
After we checked out, we headed to Whole Foods for breakfast and then we hit
the road towards the
Henry Ford Museum in
Dearborn. Traffic wasn't very bad and soon we arrived at the museum. The
museum was huge and we enjoyed every minute there, because it was not only
about the Ford Motor Company, it was more about cars in general and how they
changed the way of living in the US. One of the main exhibition pieces was the
original bus on which Rosa Parks didn't get up from her seat and sparked the
civil rights moviement. Our highlight was the old diner from the 1950s in the
middle of the museum and of course we had to get a coffee there.

Around noon we made it through the museum and ate our lunch we brought along
from Whole Foods in the beautiful park next to the musuem. The Henry Ford
consists not only of the museum itself but also of the outdoor museum called
Greenfield Village. We only had tickets for the museum and so after we
finished our lunch, we drove to the
MGM Grand Detroit, our last hotel in the US. Since our room wasn't ready yet, we got some
drinks at the casino bar. A couple of drinks later we finally were able to
check in and we got a very pretty and spacious room on the 13th floor. Before
we got to gamble in the casino, we walked to
PJ's Lager House, which was located just a few minutes away from the hotel. The rest of the
evening we spent in the casino gambling and enjoying some beers at the bar.
