Publisher's Synopsis
Whether parents are planning a day trip, a weekend excursion, or a longer stay, this book will guide them through the many activities south-eastern Michigan has to offer. Even those already familiar with the region will discover original and intriguing adventures; complete recommendations for entertainment, educational activities, and indoor and outdoor fun; and ideas on how to entertain the family regardless of the season or weather. A discussion of Detroit's past and present, a list of recommended web sites, and a calendar of festivals and events are also included. In-depth coverage of the Detroit area is provided, including must-see sites like the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village, and less-celebrated attractions like the many distinctive neighbourhoods and the views from the Detroit People Mover. Also featured are the rolling hills and lakes of northern Oakland County and the arts-oriented climate of Ann Arbor, home of the University of Michigan.
