historical aspects of the scene Almost all Americans who go there especially In youthbring back this feeling They are hardly home and unpacked before they begin look ing aheadin practical plans or nostalgic day dreamsto going again to renew and enlarge their interested association with the Old World In your case however this normal zest for adventurous va riety and footloose journeying is
