    Bleh, it's cold over by me, too. It sure doesn't feel like it's going to be June next week.
    I didn't make it to Regensburg, but we did spend a few nights in Ingolstadt! (Which looked sort of near.)
    I looked up photos of Regensburg, and it looks gorgeous.

    I would like to be able to go to sleep but seems like an impossible task these days.

    I would go to the Pyrenees Mountains. I first fell in love with the Great Pyrenees dog, and in doing reseach on its native homeland, I became enamored with those mountains.
    Silence is golden. But in the absence of silence, classical music is the avenue which chaos is turned into harmonious order.

    Yes... I am THIS weird

    I live in the northern U.S. The weather can NOT make up its mind. :/
    Next time I DO hope I can make it to Regensburg. (Or Italy - to soak up some summer!)

    I never knew that. That is quite interesting.

    If you mean near a city in the sense of metropolis, you might like York - mediaeval city, black and white houses, loads of atmosphere but only a short train ride from Leeds, which is not the mucky place it used to be, much cleaned up and modernised, as are Manchester, Liverpool and Brumigen. Lincoln is not too far from Nottingham or Sheffield, but I'm not sure these two have had the sort of urban regeneration those others have.
    Thanks for the info. Yes, I suppose I am much more interested in a metropolis. I have to begin to do some serious thinking about what I want to do and where to go again (my plans had to be put on hold more than once and then I just lost track of eveything that I had in mind). So, yes, a big thanks.

    Well, I know of Lincoln. I don't know it. I make sense, right? I am never quite sure about what I say! I always just thought it was a bigger town, but not quite a city. I guess I should know all the facts before I speak, huh? Well, now that I have the cathedral fact to help me, and I have the means to look up an estimate of the city's population, I think I will be able to determine what is what now!

    By the way, Niamh, I love your new avatar! Too cute!

    Florence, for the Caponi Library, though I don't know if that's open to the public. I love Dante lol.
    I'm weary with right-angles, abbreviated daylight,
    Waiting for a winter to be done.
    Why do I still see you in every mirrored window,
    In all that I could never overcome?

    If it to stay continuously. The answer is a definite Crail.

    Regarding a place to visit, recently I have become somewhat desirous to visit Greenland for some strange reason I can not figure out.
    There once was a scotsman named Drew
    Who put too much wine in his stew
    He felt a bit drunk
    And fell off his bunk
    And landed smack into his shoe
