Last night Brian and I went with some friends to the Detroit City Fest. It was kind of like a taste of Detroit with live music. We had a blast! The two couples we went with, we met on vacation in the Dominican Republic. They are life long Michiganders and know everything that's going on in Detroit. We are really glad they invited us it was quite an experience. Detroit is so diverse, and there were booths that had tons of local food from Greek, to Lebanese, to Ethiopian, to Polish, and much more. I had a Gyro, hummus, and Italian Ice and enjoyed all three. Brian who is very careful in making his selections had hummus and BBQ ribs. We passed on the deep-fried Mars bars and the 1 lb "Oh my God" hamburger. We settled in by one of the plazas and listened to a jazz singer and caught up with each other. While we were walking through the stands we encountered the Rap pavilion, and it totally reminded us that we were in D-town and not the homogeneous Norridge or Delmar any longer. Brian took video below to capture the memory, and I'm glad he did it was a really fun night.Saturday, July 7, 2007
We're not in Norridge/Delmar any more!

Quite a night! You are correct that it was more diverse than where you both grew up! Glad you had a good time. The food sounds great. The people look like they were having great fun. Talk to you soon. Love, L and Wa
