The traveler was active; he went strenuously in search of people, of adventure, of experience. The tourist is passive; he expects interesting things to happen to him. He goes "sight-seeing." -Daniel J. Boorstin
It is not down in any map; true places never are. -Herman Melville

They were traveling back to where they live in Denver, Colorado. The flight was delayed by an hour, I believe, but I finally discovered what it's like to travel on an airplane. Personally I found that I like traveling ... read more
