TRAVELING WITH GUIDEBOOKS.

TRAVELING WITH GUIDEBOOKS. I posted here about this article by Wendy MacCleod, which expressed dissatisfaction with European travel. She wrote that, “The problem with guidebooks is that they’ve given everybody the same itinerary,” and pointed out that there are sights you are expected to see, and if you fail to get to them, you have failed as a traveler. My family loves to remind of my declaration on one of our trips, “We don’t have time to stop and look at that. We’re too busy sightseeing.” Of course, I said it ironically.
