Aloha from Detroit [big pics]

just wanna say wassup from the land of American cars and great roads (sorta)
the hotel where we are staying at is right across 2 huge Ford buildings- its amazing how steel is in great supply here...and used abundantly.. unlike back home
although i am here on business i will post up some great shots later on tonight (udaman, samurai!)
the weather sucks, rain-lightning,hail and 20 percent humidity... but its all good. i miss spam eggs and rice.... and ASIAN people! jajajajaja!

Welcome! The weather would have been much nicer for you had you been here for another few days. This last weekend was wonderful weather. What hotel were you staying at?

And yes 93 Octane FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
