Connecting Neighbor with Neighbour

Connecting Neighbor with Neighbour
Completed in 1929, the remarkable Ambassador Bridge over the Detroit River is about a one-and-a-half-mile suspension bridge that connects the U.S.A.’s Detroit, Michigan with Canada’s Windsor, Ontario. Being likely the most unobservant person you’ve ever (or maybe never) met, it amazes me that I’ve never found myself unintentionally on the entrance ramp. I’d have approximately 7500 feet to contemplate how to handle my situation upon arrival. My chances of being prepared, dignified, and self-assured are nearly nada.
“Hi! Give me a hug!
Finally, we meet! And me,
without my passport.”

I have relatives in the Detroit area, and relatives in Windsor, Ontario. Your piece made me smile!
