My theory is that traveling for pleasure causes me to focus on things, places, and people that are 'special'. I seek out 'special', in fact, and in doing so, find it in places I might normally overlook in a day-to-day routine. Day-to-day involves (for me anyway) planning, scheduling, being on time, budgeting of money, and completion of tasks. This is inevitable with 2 small children. Vacation (as it should) slows me down, so I can see the 'special' things, even if they almost never seem special except during that trip.Jacob Naylor (Pennsylvania, USA)noreply@blogger.com
