Our tour guide waves a plastic fiber optic light wand over her head. “I try to hold this thing up, but most people say it just makes me five-foot-four,” she says.
But what Linda Yellin lacks in height, she makes up for in decibels. “Yes, my last name really is Yellin,” she points out
Yellin is addressing a group of some 30 tourists gathered for one of her Feet on the Street walking tours of Detroit, which she invited us to tag along. (The theme of the tour is “Come Hungry, Leave Happy, Learn Healthier,” and we can’t turn down an invitation for free food.)
