To each his own cystic. Call me a tourist or whatever, but I don’t want to hitchike or study on my vacation. I want to be taken care of. I can wander around aimlessly and read at home and not spend any money. And although not as beatnick, a library card works just fine for me and is a lot cheaper than a plane ticket. I can forgo the scenery while I read. As far as hitchiking is concerned. I want a cab. Didn’t some chick get grabbed in the Carribian not too long ago?
But hey, like I said. To each his own. Have not been to vegas yet, so would like to check it out. Cirque de solei, gambling, legal prostition (oops, did I say that last one out loud? lol). Not now of course, but mardi gras would kick some ass. That and the places that leader mentioned in Germany. World war 2 junky and all. Be kind of cool to see some of the places in Russia where major battles were fought, but the place looks like a real dive to me. The places in Germany aren’t all that great. Kind of like “and here is yet another city that got bombed”. Not too epic, more sad than anything.
