Wednesday/ to Detroit, and into Canada

It was quite a journey from Denver to Detroit and into Canada. I got into Detroit at 10.00 pm, and had to navigate to the city and the Ambassador Bridge into Canada and on to the little town of Chatham where I’m meeting my USA colleagues and PwC Canada colleagues tomorrow. I pulled up at the Holiday Inn Express at exactly midnight local time in my rented white Chevy Impala.

Yes, I was driving, but 1. the truck on my right was going really slow due to an uphill curve that leads up to the bridge and 2. I had both my hands on the steering wheel with the phone in between resting on it. I pushed the shutter and immediately put the phone away.
