I love traveling, especially if a week or two is available for a given city or place. Am in Kansas City, Missouri, for my third summer.
Have begun to truly notice the differences, architecture, weather and sky.
Having spent forty plus years an hour north of San Francisco, its a change.
Spent two weeks in Paris once. Enough to learn the subway, find places by walking to eat at or museums to see.
By foot, if possible, is the way to learn a city. One only needs time and to relax as it all unfolds around one.
