Detroit skyline, today, February 9th, 2008
Went shopping in Detroit today, courtesy of my kind neighbours. (thanks!) This, however, is NOT what Detroit looked like when we left for shopping as it was 6:30am! Detroit was still sleeping...
except at the bridge crossing where there was already a huge line up, at the Customs booth where the guard smiled/laughed and asked "shopping at 6:30?" At Home Depot where they smiled told us to "come on in", Walmart where the greeter gave hugs! Meijer gas station, where they laughingly greeted us over the speaker, Meijer store, where the smiling greeter said "hi there folks, come on in and take advantage of our great deals!"
I'm telling you, at 6:30am, people are pretty friendly in Detroit.
Ok, I'm off for a nap.

Hope you have enough candy for Valentine's Day.
It was Mary the greeter at Wal-Mart who gives hugs but the Meijer greeter was also very friendly. Everyone was friendly as usual.
Anytime you need to U.S. shop just ask.
Ah right, got them backwards! It was awfully early! hehe
Thanks for the trip and the future offer of more :)
All fixed! Greeters have been corrected.
Get ready Easter is on it's way - March 21st weekend, you will need more candy, you will have to make another trip in less than a month as Easter candy is almost more important than Valentine's Day!!!!!!!!!
I guess that means another trip eh? Maybe another couple jumbo hot dogs too?
