Let me know if you do one.<BR/><BR/>Josie - I think that's exactly the sort of thing they mean. Also, things like wood, stone, concrete, glass all give off a different psychic feel, don't they?<BR/><BR/>Meanie - Yes the suburbs wind around and around and sometimes you think you'll never get out and all the houses look the same and no one's on the streets to ask directions.

For some strange reason, I prefer my neighborhood because of the "light". A few blocks away the light is different. I can "feel" it.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06979114933441527890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7861967395213955449.post-21111877227633236112008-05-28T13:17:00.000-07:002008-05-28T13:17:00.000-07:00I have read about these walking tours of the "unde...I have read about these walking tours of the "underbelly".

Maybe a few tunnels and obelisks? In Europe/UK they have singles pg meets - it's very popular<BR/><BR/>Chris - It would be a fun thing to do. I think the idea is that you have to just wander without really studying anything and without any expectations and see how different areas "feel".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7861967395213955449.post-89975029235537881912008-05-27T17:59:00.000-07:002008-05-27T17:59:00.000-07:00I can't recall any sexy/erotic atmospheres during ...I can't recall any sexy/erotic atmospheres during my walkabouts here in Toronto, but I'm all for something like that in Ottawa (whenever I get there, that is) because I just like the sound of it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7861967395213955449.post-37596620340926886452008-05-27T17:36:00.000-07:002008-05-27T17:36:00.000-07:00a) Sexy Flaneur Group - I once thought I was witne...a) Sexy Flaneur Group - I once thought I was witnessing a flaneur group in downtown Hamilton, but it just turned out to be some guys over from the men's shelter doing a little panhandling at the mall.<BR/><BR/>b) Voluptuous Architecture - The shelf holding the Honey Crullers at Tim Horton's, for example.<BR/><BR/>c) Erotic Landscaping - I once heard of a woman who was arrested for trimming her hedge in public.<BR/><BR/>d) Seriously, though - I have had occasion to walk without a goal, but unfortunately I had less than two bucks in my pocket at the time, and was picked up for vagrancy.JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12518937433074671592noreply@blogger.com
