I love you too!
When I can't afford travel, I watch the Travel Channel and what draws
travelers to a specific place. Is it the mountains? Cathedrals?
Hotels? NO! It's the uniqueness of say, Paris, with its' Eiffel
Tower! Italy for its' Leaning Tower! Asbury Park, for its'
Carousel/Palace Amusements/Madam Marie/Convention Hall or Bradley
himself, for the historic City HE founded!
What is New Orleans known for? Mardi Gras/French Quarter/French
cuisine/Emeril and BAM! Not to mention Louisiana Porch Puppies, AKA
Alligators! New York! Would anyone tear down Lady Liberty? Radio
City? The Plaza or anything on 5th Ave.? NO!
I have to ask, why oh why would anyone want to tear down Coney Island?
There would be no reason to go to Brooklyn, other than Juniors!
Hinge, I know you've traveled all over. Me too! I've been under the
arches in St. Louis, crazy places, like Charlotte, Long Beach, LA, San
Diego and Anaheim, Ca.
Been to the Alamo, Empire State Bldg., Radio City, Montreal and took
the tour, eaten in Vieux Montreal, Notre Dame Cathedral, paddlewheeled
up and down the Mississippi, in New Orleans and St. Louis, been to
Greek-Town in Detroit, parts of the Underground Railroad, been
everywhere in NJ, except Lucy the Elephant in Margate.
Been to Europe and seeing the outline of the North American continent
on the way back, wept, because there's no place like the USA!
