Memphis, Tennessee, United States

Last visit of the trip : Memphis TN.  Had a great weekend there. Visited "Graceland" - house of Elvis Presley - which was amazing. The National Civil Rights Museum, actually converted from the hotel "Lorraine" where Dr Martin Luther King was assasinated:  though not eye-popping, it was a real eye opener. There, I really felt the true meaning and significance of "civil rights" - how important they are, how lucky we are to enjoy them and take them for granted. Other than those two highlights, I also went to the famous "Beale Street" with its Blues & Jazz Clubs, stood by the side of the Mississipi river, had great food and enjoyed the hospitality of my hosts!

Detroit, Michigan, United States

I ventured for a rather long walk on the morning of Saturday, 6th September. Walked down Woodward avenue to downtown Detroit. There I happened to meet a tour guide who does walking tours. We went for a 2 hour walking tour of the city. Took some photos - notably one of Mr Cadillac's staute - the French gentleman who had founded the city of Detroit. Click the photos for a brief description.

Detroit, Michigan, United States

The flight was comfortable - with good in-flight entertainment. I watched 3 movies (Iron Man, Ray Charles & Prince Caspian) & even played chess with the in-flight in-seat computer! Arrived & checked-in without problem at the International Guest House, Detroit Medical Center on 3rd September 3pm. Delta Airlines lost my bag which luckily was found and sent across 2 days later. So, I had to walk to a grocery store for some provisions. The streets don't have many pedestrians. Here are some photos
