[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP, thanks so much to everyone (except grumpy first poster)!  We've been talking about possibly Detroit or Chicago and UP, so it's nice to see so many recommendations for that!  I also talked to the kids about Nova Scotia.  I'd really like to do that but they weren't sure about doing Canada two years in a row.  We've been to Chicago a couple of times so maybe Detroit is the way to go.  Does anyone have other places/things to do in Detroit or the UP to recommend?  What do you do on Mackinac Island?  Thanks![/quote]

We live just outside of Detroit, there are a surprisingly a lot of things to do here - definitely Henry Ford, also a Tigers game is really fun in the summer, exploring the Detroit Riverfront, Belle Isle, Eastern Market, Dequindre Cut (rent bikes to ride around the riverfront, etc.). A ton of great restaurants right downtown. If you want make it a big circle drive and come across Canada, you can see Niagara Falls and then go west to Detroit. Head to Traverse City area the next day, go to Fishtown and the Sand Dunes, then go down the west side of the state. Drive into Ohio and go to Hocking Hills and then Cleveland for the Rock and Roll Museum. Have a fun road trip! [/quote]
