I will be travelling to MIS on the 15th of this month and would like to know if it's better to go through Sarnia or Windsor for my trip. According to google, the times are pretty close, but Windsor makes for a shorter trip.
Also, I have never driven in the USA.....should I be afraid? :o

Driving in the US isn't that bad, you just have to stay calm and know where you are going... you will have issues with construction so make sure you have a map of Michigan or alternative routes.
And if you drive through Windsor, let me know and we can meet up.

They drive like maniacs over in Michigan. I guess it's no different than Toronto. LOL
BTW go through Windsor / Detroit border.

Sounds like Windsor is the way to go.
I'll be with my mom KB, but if you wanna hook up for coffee on the way there or on the way back, I'm sure we could . I'm trying to convince my mother to sell our tix and buying an extra to bring junior.

I was talking to my friend that is a trucker and he said Sarnia is the best way to get there. Coming home isn't a big rush so if we want to get together it would have to be coming back. What time that might be is anyones guess.

If you have a cell phone.. I can give you mine and you can text me when you are heading this way... texting is the cheapest.

We are going as far as I know. Not sure when we will get back to Canada, but I'll let you know before we get back.

It was only an hour after I got here that I remembered, so be gentle .
The drive was soooooo long and soooooo boring, I'm surprised I remembered at all.

Just after 11. We stopped on the way home for a drink and a snack so it slowed us down. I think it was around midnight that I woke up and got wifey to text you. Sorry KB .
Now time for some pics!
