I feel like I should respond. I am one that has enjoyed hearing of others travels from this site and am paying attention to reports from travelers post 9/11. I don't post often because I don't have the travel experience that most of you have, but I am inspired to travel more when I read the experiences of other Ziners. I strongly believe that if we live in fear, we don't live at all. I am planning my trip to Paris over Thanksgiving and have appreciated the information I've received from this site and forum. I intend to take good notes on my trip to report back and hopefully repay this site for the tips I've received. I wish I could do more to promote travel and reduce others fears.

Thanks, Brian Newbury Park, CA
