Saginaw, Michigan is probably a very nice town. Can't say for sure. We drove right around it thanks to a silly detour, we stayed in one of the worst motels ever near it, but still didn't see the town. So we'll say its nice.
We got away from that motel as early as possible and had a light brekfast at a nearby McDonalds. Well, they do have nice coffee.
Then it was slab it all the way in to Detroit as we were over a hundred miles away and wanted a good look at the Henry Ford Museum.
So we paid our $15 per head and spent three hours having a good look at some great exhibits. Mostly to do with transport. Cars, motorcycles, trains, planes over the last 100 plus years. Made for a great morning.
By lunchtime we were pretty walked out and got back on the bikes to go to London, ON, Canada. That meant going through customs again, which only took about two minutes, after waiting in line for 50 minutes!
After that, another 100 plus miles of Canadian freeway and we arrved in London, just a little bit wet but tonight we are in a better motel - not hard to do - but it's internet connection is broken. Can't win 'em all.
Got some pics today:
Birmingham is a nice little suburb/town
Well, it is Detroit

Janis Joplin's car. Not a Mercedes you'll notice.
Apparently Alice was a very sweet guy. Long story.
