The annual finale to another great season of VIP Camp came to a conclusion with a party at the local bowling alley. Plenty of games and fun for all the campers and their hosts. James got to do plenty of bowling and this year the parents had a chance to bowl as well if they like. Mom and Dad decided against joining into the bowling as it has been decades since they have.

With the power still off we went through Elizabeth park but even then the power was still off, so finally we made our way to Belle Isle and enjoyed the sights of the island. Eventually while we were on the island the power did come on and so we finished up our day in Detroit and finally went home to a house with power. Luckily we never opened the refrigerator or freezer so all our food was still cool/cold. A very interesting day for sure.
