Thank you to Mikeg and DtCtyGrl and other persons for the great work that you do.

Tomorrow, I will go away for few days. I will come back in middle next week.

A few years,I would like go to USA .

My daughter would like to visit New York, but I would like to visit Detroit.
Could you [[one day) send me information on the most interesting places at Detroit that we will can see?
With you, sometimes, I have feeling to be as in a family who lives at Detroit.
That is comforting for me.
Cordially.
