Why Travel?
With only 2 more days before I begin my little expidition, I find myself asking, why travel? And why do I ask this question? Why travel, when you can walk to your local shops and see such interesting sights as a man walking along, smoking a pipe. Yep, that's what I said, a pipe. I mean, I've seen people smoking cigarettes in public, and less commonly joints, and even less commonly cigars, but never a pipe. He wasn't wearing slippers either. Or is it just legend that puts pipe smoking and slippers together? In fact, he was dressed rather more like he should have been smoking Winnie Blues.I think I need to let Lonely Planet know. It certainly belongs in a tourist guide, "... and walking through the streets of suburban Melbourne, don't be surprised if you see people smoking pipes..."
All too late, for I was surprised!
