it's funny that you should say that.
New Orleans has also held so much fascination for me. When I was a kid I had this stupid travel magazine that had a big spread on the city in it. I bet I carried that magazine with me for 5 years.
I finally went to new orleans about 6 years ago, and I felt so at home there. I can't explain it. I don't know. As a scientist i know this is impossible, but do you think one can be in synch with a place? I dream about it a lot.
I was set to go back for two weeks in December 2005. I just cried as I watched Katrina just destroy it. Such a wonderful place, such a great spirit.
There are other places I feel strongly about such as Limon, Colorado and Ireland - though I've never even been to that country.
Okay, this is way off the intended note of the thread. Sorry Phillipa.
