My Gramma would whistle for a cab and we would go to Hudson's and Saunder's. I loved it. I need to visit many more cities to really qualify, but I love San Francisco and Boston!jodihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01798858210138821711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22752109.post-71961907983277887062010-01-03T21:17:07.255-05:002010-01-03T21:17:07.255-05:00Thanks all for the comments.

Mark, I also like checking out the local scenes, which are at least a little different, the burghers, politics, history, architecture, art, music and all that good stuff. <br /><br />MD, makes sense -- a lot of hassle the older one gets, unless you have a personal driver or whatnot! Still, even your cities mentioned strike a yearning in the imagination. Lana and Nunya, I will take your word on both counts. Would never want to live in LA, certainly -- nein danke. Now Manhattan with a zillion bucks, at least a hepcat crash pad . . . <br /><br />Cheers all'Erik Donald Francehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02332500850365598564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22752109.post-50329629775410881732010-01-03T19:03:08.188-05:002010-01-03T19:03:08.188-05:00LA is horrible.

I still have a friend on Riverside Dr. who I visit on a fairly regular basis. Whenever I get back there, I allow a full day for the American Museum of Natural History (inc. the planetarium, which I have fond laser Zeppelin memories of, even though they've completely redesigned it since then.)<br />Take my word for it; Toronto's a great place...to visit. I would never live there again. I agree w/you about living <i>near</i> a city, though. It's nice to have access to a metropolitan center (although, compared to NYC & Toronto, New Orleans seems so very <i>small!</i>)Lana Gramlichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06975996208260144558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22752109.post-86834558563932238632010-01-03T11:57:36.166-05:002010-01-03T11:57:36.166-05:00[url=http://rastimores.net/][img]http://rastimores...[url=http://rastimores.net/][img]http://rastimores.net/img-add/euro2.jpg[/img][/url]<br />[b]5 Pro Finale, [url=http://rastimores.net/]microsoft software price[/url]<br />[url=http://rastimores.net/][/url] buy educational software adobe creative suite 3 design premium<br />student discount microsoft office 2007 [url=http://rastimores.net/]which software to buy[/url] microsoft activesync software<br />[url=http://akreoplastoes.net/]buy phone software[/url] macromedia flash 8.0 software<br />[url=http://akreoplastoes.net/]office enterprise 2007 update fails stalls[/url] pentium dual core e2180 compatible adobe photoshop cs3<br />microsoft windows xp [url=http://akreoplastoes.net/]adobe reader software[/url][/b]Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22752109.post-70984056667996002002010-01-03T10:27:46.958-05:002010-01-03T10:27:46.958-05:00I used to love cities and used to live for years i...I used to love cities and used to live for years in Zwolle the Netherlands. But I have never been to the US. One of my favorite cities is, of course, Amsterdam and the next one is Paris. I like Berlin too. So much history there.<br /><br />But now, now I'm that much older, I prefer the smaller places, villages even.
