I definitely made my rounds. I was in East Lansing, Kalamazoo, Hastings and Detroit visiting friends and family at a wedding (my high school friend Betsy got married), a goodbye party (for my friend Nikki from MSU) and a surprise birthday party (for my aunt Sheryl).
During my down time at my parents' house, I took advantage of free food and cable. And my parents' company. I even saw my sister for about 15 minutes.
Oh, I also saw "Batman: The Dark Knight" and "Mamma Mia" while I was in Kalamazoo. Both were enjoyable in very different ways.
Before I knew it, I was at Detroit Metro Airport with my suitcase in hand. My plane was two hours late leaving Detroit and I had a connecting flight to make in New York City. I knew it was going to be close. I got off with about 40 minutes before my next flight was scheduled to depart for Boston at 9 p.m. I had to exit the airport, run across the street to a different terminal, go through security again and made it to my gate about 15 minutes before it started boarding. Whew!
As the plane departed NYC, fireworks were going off at the baseball stadium. It was a spectacular sight to fly over them and into the night sky.
It was a nice visit to Michigan, but I was relieved when I safely made it back to Boston and could relax after a busy vacation.
