I am really surprised the someone from outside of Detroit would really try and put that much effort into making our city seem that perfect and a great place to visit. I agree with that viewpoint, but to try to convince those in Baltimore to come to Detroit, this author did a wonderful job of it!

Cool article. I noticed that Ms. Henderson spent less than she budgeted for this trip. Hopefully, she'll use those left over funds to start saving for another trip to the D.

Ms. Henderson is writing for a major American newspaper but had never seen an opera before? That seems unbelievable.

What I found unbelievable was the quote from the author's cousin : "there is no history in Detroit." Hey that is one thing we have plenty of here!
