I have been researching getting to ypsilanti without driving myself the entire way. I have found out: Via runs trains to Winsdor (about $100 round trip) There is a bus that runs 2 to 3 times an hour from downtown windsor to downtown detroit ($2.35) Amtrak runs from Detroit to Ann Arbour ($14) Cardinal Tours runs Casino Tours to Winsdor Casino on Mondays from Southern Ontario. ($25.00 plus either $15 food or gambling credit) I know it leaves Hamilton at 9:30am - arrives Windsor at 1:30 (they have a rest stop half way through) The bus leaves again at 6:30 and you are back in Hamilton aroud 10:30. Enterprise rent a car is only about $35 for the day. Flights are $217 from Buffalo. ground transport from Hamilton to Buffalo is $75 and ground transport from Romulus to Ypsilanti is about $40 round trip. (Spirit air, I think) hope this helps someone....... I am still not sure what I will do for the 25th. My usual shopping buddy can't make it and I need Ken at home to get the kids to swimming and gymnastics. I don't think I will be up to it to drive the entire way there and back - even with the usual overnight stay that I have been taking.... The casino bus seems pretty cost concious and give me more than enough time to get to the clinic - mapquest says it is 44 minutes from the casino. Nellie

The only issue with the Via to tunnel bus route in Windsor is that the bus station is not downtown so there would be an extra expense of a cab ride from the train station to downtown where you could catch the tunnel bus. I'm also not sure how far Amtrack is on the other side of the border? Dawn
