We didn’t plan to spend more than a day in Detroit, because we had heard and read all about how the city was decaying and we weren’t sure what there was to do.

Belle Isle is an island that is one big city park for the people of Detroit. It can be reached by the bridge that is in the foreground of the photo. There are lots of playgrounds, beaches for swimming, a golf course and many other amenities. It looked like a great place to spend a day, but we only had an afternoon. It would be great fun to go back sometime soon!
