In my first riff upom our upcoming theme, I posited that I would miss the harbour, and its beaches, the sun and the sand. Steffe Jansson shot back that I could simply move to another seaside city ... mmm ... he is right, y'know.
There must be something else I would miss should I move away from Sydney.
How about the history of places like The Rocks? It sounds a bit over the top to miss history in a city that was only established in 1788. But there are not many world-class cities which were established as a penal colony. |

Cela parait normal de s'attacher à sa ville, ce n'est pas mon cas. Brassens, le chanteur Français qui est né à Sète, avait fait une chanson sur "Les imbéciles heureux qui sont nés quelque part"...on peut être d'accord ou pas.
Welcome, Alain. Yes, it is normal to be attached to one's city. I am trying tp think of what I like the most. The top 10 things. I shall visit you in return.
What a beautiful view, Julie!
I would miss the history in my town too, even though it only dates back to 1761 as far as European peoples. There were native peoples in this are prior to that, going back 10,000 years.
History is like an old friend Julie. It's memory follows you wherever you may go.
