Wait, are there no Target stores in Canada?


I've never been across the border, but I'm on he "south side" of MN, so it's a longer drive than I wanna make!

Oh, that reminds me - I'd better get working on obtaining our passports so we can go to the US too.

Do you need a passport to get into the US now? I was trying to remember if they ever made it official that you needed a passport or not yet....

Woo-hoo!!! Have tons of fun!

SE Michigan is known for its shopping districts, like Twelve Oaks mall and Somerset Mall (Somerset I rarely step foot in without dressing to the nines...even my work clothes made me feel like trash walking in there on night).

If you head up to Birch Run (between Flint and Saginaw) is some good outlet shopping.
The largest one we have.

Of course there is good old Target - that store rules!!!!

They are still allowing vehicular traffic across the border without a passport (just as long as you have acceptable ID proof) but to fly into the US, as of the first of January this year, one needs a passport or they can and will stop you.

They have said that as of January, 2008 we will need a passport to cross in a vehicle as well and since they kept their word on the flight requirement, I can only assume they will make us have the passport for vehicles as of Jan/08 and I would like to "beat the rush".

I've been seeing commercials from the US's end. Since err..downtown Windsor is a little more frequented then downtown Detroit, there are PSA with reminders that we need our passport by 2008.
