I saw this article today (SMH) : Think this is a 'golden age of travel'? Think again
and I got to wondering myself. I recall my best time in Rome with the Trevi Fountain was at 05.00 my camera and Tripod set up, catching a pretty good shot of the fountain as the sun rose using a slow shutter speed
not a soul was around, yet at 09.00 through to midnight you couldn't move.
I for one have had it with trying to battle the tourist hoards, when last in Paris, we visited the lesser known / frequented museums and galleries and had a much more enjoyable time.
our next trip will see us bypass Paris and head straight for the country.
i guess i will miss some of the highlights, but I am not enjoying the crush
