Updated
I’ve added resource pages for Washington, DC and Paris.
Also, I’ve added links to a couple of podcast walking tours of DC offered by Slate.com. Here’s the iTunes link.
Update: Added a New York resource page as well.

aTravelogue.com 2.0
Hey everybody and welcome to the all new aTravelogue.com.
I’m very excited about this new design as I think it will really allow me to expand this site to encompass all my upcoming travels and travel plans. I will be able to archive links, blog about my trips both before, during and after, and consolidate all my photo albums in one easy to find place.
I hope as this site expands it will become a resource for anyone looking to travel to the places I’ve researched.
There are still a few pages I need to get online, and as I finish them, I’ll put them up and announce it here.
Please look around and let me know what you think of the new site. All feedback is welcome.

Light posting and a redesign
I’m sorry posting has been so light around here lately, but I am in the midst of a redesign that will, hopefully, make things a little more organized.
Mainly this is because I’m widening the scope of this thing a bit to include information and links for a wide variety of place, my photography from my travels (both upcoming and in the past), and whatever else I think is appropriate.
I haven’t quite got this all sorted out yet, but I do have the beginnings of a design I’m pretty happy with and that should allow for future expansion.
Please stand by.

Créa
Ooo, I very much want to go here when we’re in Paris. Looks like my kind of store. All sort of art supplies and pens and such. And big, too, apparently.
A map can be found here

Parisian tips
Here are some great tips for travelers visiting Paris. As well as some restaurant suggestions.
An example:
Talking vs. Shouting
Americans talk LOUDLY. (As do people in several other countries). If you don’t believe it, watch cable television "news" for a few minutes! It’s gotten so that restaurant reviews in the United States now include ‘sound’ ratings to denote the volume in restaurants. Many of us are used to speaking loudly, especially when we get into groups. If you’ve ever tried to have a peaceful dinner next to a table celebrating their annual office party, you know what I’m talking about. In Paris, people will modulate their voices so as not to disturb other diners.
