As Detroit is so close to the border with Canada we went south and crossed into Windsor. We went to Canada via a tunnel and back
to the U.S. via the bridge.  |

After
lunch Bonnie and I went shopping. It was fun to go round the supermarket. I think anyone going back to the U.S
from abroad must have greater reverse culture shock than we do. There is so much more food than we
have. And there are different
foods too. I knew we get a lot of
American brands in the Philippines but there were some I still hadn’t realised
were American till we were walking round.
This ice-cream cracked me up, though. This probably reinforces the stereotype of the American that
we British hold.
It’s interesting for me to see things that friends at Faith Academy have
talked about and it’s really good to see where Bonnie is from. I will be able to picture her there
now.
