Detroit is one of our favorite places to go and visit family. Each trip brings new adventures and new memories. This was a quick weekend trip, but boy did we pack it full of fun.
We left Fort Myers at an unbearable 6am and flew direct to Detroit. We couldn\’t stand how hungry we were when we arrived, so we drove to Downtown Detroit to find a breakfast spot. We stumbled into the Cadillac Square Diner on a whim. With our family of 8 eating here, we had almost every breakfast menu item on the menu and it did not disappoint. Definitely comes highly recommended from me if you are in town during brunch.
This diner led to a walk around downtown, a tour of the Renaissance Center and had a great view of the bridge to Canada {it was news to my husband that you could see Canada from the US – obviously he wasn\’t paying much attention in geography class}. We also took pictures in front of the huge Christmas tree at Campus Martius Park. Right across the street from the park is this awesome coffee shop called the Roasting Plant Detroit. You can literally watch the coffee beans you choose come out of the bean holder, through the ceiling and into brewing for your cup of coffee. That\’s serious coffee brewing if I do say so myself.
