Following up to B Vaughan

Ask yourself honestly, if someone came from Norway to spend a few
days, or even a week, in your town, knowing no one locally, how much
could they experience of the place?

thats one reason we do intensive, rather than extensive holidays.
We are really getting to know people in Wasdale and in some parts
of Spain, we are going back to Unst again this year, even though
we have "seen" everything.

One of our favorite . . . uh . . . "holidays" . . . is to return to a
destination we've visited before. Because we've "seen" everything, there is
no pressure to cover a specific agenda, and we can relax, return to favorite
haunts, explore new ones, etc.

Me too :-)

It's really relaxing to have a "not running around looking for things"
holiday, particularly if you've been traveling a lot for work!!

Oh, I like that kind of holiday too. For an afternoon! :)
