Quite the day

Hey everyone! I was so tired last night that I basically knocked out without posting anything. I had a bit of an emotional start to my Tuesday. I went out for a short run in the morning and about half-way through, my right knee and shin hurt so badly that I had to hobble home. I knew I was having trouble with shin splints on my right leg but I was really hoping that I wouldn’t have a knee problem again. I iced it and tried to calm myself down. Eventually I got ready since I knew my friend Brandon was driving two hours to come see me. Things got so much better from there. We had a delicious arabic breakfast of knafeh.

Then we went to Greenfield Village which is probably my favorite place of all time. Here are some favorite moments:

Then we decided to randomly drive to Canada since the border is so close. 🙂 We went to a place called Loose Goose for dinner.

I had a fabulous burger with some sweet potato fries. We walked around a bit by the water and explored a bit more of Windsor. It’s a really cool place and has a lot more things to do than Detroit has. 🙂 We called it a day at about 7 PM and got a little lost finding the tunnel back. My only complaint about Canada is that their signs SUCK. Seriously, they’re no help and almost none of their highways have clear markers. We finally got back and then it was time for Brandon to leave. It was such a great day and I’m so glad I got to see him before I leave for Disney. By the way, I leave in..THREE DAYS. :O Today, I’m going to get things sorted.. I promise..and I get to see Claire which I’m actually more excited about than packing. 😛

Have a great Wednesday! 😀
