BTW, Tavern on the Green is for tourists only.

When I lived in NYC I was, of course, too jaded and too sophisticated to do the "tourist" things. When I went back as a tourist with my children I was able to do them on the excuse that they were really for my children, not for me. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I think many New Yorkers cut themself from entertaining and enjoyable experiences by dismissing them as "tourist" things.

OTOH, now that I live in a tourist destination, I do the same thing here. I have lived in the San Juans for 20 years and never been on a whale watching trip because it is too "touristy," and my friends would crook their eyebrows at me if they saw me doing it.

Why do we so limit ourselves?
