I've been wondering whether anything will seem new and unique when we are actually there. Perhaps fewer people will feel the need to make the actual journey and will experience places vicariously and intellectually instead, as Mary Jane suggests. It would also be ecologically far better than all the jet contrails in the sky. What a hypocrite I am sitting here by the ocean on the Swedish West Coast. How could you-tube ever encompass the fresh air, the wind, the view or the feeling of the place? By the way I might just as well have put this comment on Phil's post today. (I think he's just what Marx would call a vulgar utopian, not a scientific socialist at all! Can a true revolutionary live in Norwalk? Maybe, just as Marx lived on Engel's father's money) The group of teachers I’m taking to Lesotho and South Africa in late June is very computer oriented and constantly finding things we will see on you-tube and the internet.

Journeys are rich in memories, and photos, and high points. But they are not relaxing. Sometimes, the journey has to be within instead.
