Getting to Know You: A Visitor to Your Hometown

Hi, y'all! Deb here again with more questions to help us all create connections and get to know each other a little better.

As always, you can post your answers to these questions on your blog anytime between now and next Wednesday, then post the link in comments here. If you don't have a blog, you can simply answer the questions in the comments section of this post.

Here's the scenario this week. Imagine you've made a connection with another blogger who lives in a completely different part of the world than you do. This blogger is about to take a trip and the connection you've made is so strong that she is going to make your house one stop on her trip. (Yay!) Unfortunately she can only stay at your place for 24 hours (boo!), but she'd like to see some nearby sights while visiting with you.

Keeping in mind that time is quite limited, so you have to stick pretty close to home (although not necessarily right IN your town - just anyplace you could go as a day trip), try looking around you with the eyes of someone who has never seen your area and tell us some things you'd share with...

A Visitor to Your Hometown

1. Your visitor wants to see something historical. Where would you take her and why?

2. She wants to see something hysterical...well, mildly amusing anyway. She'd even go for cute, quirky, odd, or unique. Where would you take her and why?

3. She wants to take some beautiful and/or interesting photos to fill her albums when she gets home. Where would you take her?

4. She'd like to buy a souvenir that will remind her of your area every time she sees it. What would you suggest and where would you go to get it?

5. Wow, it's been a long day and you're both ready for a snack, or maybe even a meal. Where would you take her to really get the flavor of your area?

Until next week!
Deb

Up and running - one day is not enough because where I live is so spread out, so I convinced by blogger friend to take two days!

[DebR]

I sent Whiskey an email, but in case anyone else reads this and wonders, just jump right in! There's no formal joining process - just do the activities (any of them, from any day), write about it on your blog, then come back here and leave a link to your blog post in the comments section of the prompt post. EasyPeasy! :-)

[whiskyminx]

Please can I join in, it's something I would love to do, and can do this time around :)

Do I get allocated a visitor? Or can I just type up the answers on my blog?

1st timer, sorry to be a pain.

Hugs

Whisky
