French stereotype maligns midwestern terrain. Lovely rolling land.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tropical climate, Streamline moderne's sherbet tints, Miami beckons.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Farewell central heat and the need for heavy coats. Back to heat and dust.

Rikita decides: I’ll see Kerala or bust. It’s a week away! Psssst, Mick: Since we are here instead of trekking across places off the map, perhaps we can console ourselves with some travel haiku. Remember that the basic rule is 3 lines with 5-7-5 syllables. True geniuses can sometimes dare to break the rules, but I don't know if any of us qualify -- there's plenty of time to find out. Passport in pocket Clouds scuttling across the sky No airplane for me

Oops. Sorry.
Actually after I posted that I vaguely recalled there were certain rules - then instantly forgot all about it...............

Well, as Kerouac said, "True geniuses can sometimes dare to break the rules" ~~ You qualify, and your travel haiku struck a chord.

When will the rain stop? Open tourist umbrellas hide the Eiffel Tower.

Couldn't you get five if you use "la Tour Eiffel" instead of "the Eiffel Tower"?
Big plans for this year. Then I got a little dog, and stayed home instead.
