Taking Our Turkey on the Road

Happy Thanksgiving!

This year, we took our turkey on the road - to Detroit for some sightseeing and the Thanksgiving Day football game between the Lions and the Titans. In the morning we visited Belle Isle, a park on an island in the Detroit River, which separates the USA from Canada. Downtown Detroit is on the right, Windsor, Canada, is on the left.

Canada geese were everywhere, but I just had to stop here and take a picture of Canada geese with Canada itself in the background.


Then, on to the football game. The Lions have not been having a good season, and they were playing a very good team, the Titans. So the result was as to be expected, but, this was my first pro football game experience, and we still had a great time!

Some play action with the ball - go Lions go!

I've never been to a pro football game before. Lots of high school and Penn State games though. Looks like you had a wonderful time!
