How To Be A Tourist
Sep 2, 2018 · 1 min read
It’s Labor Day weekend here in the US, and prime vacation time is quickly drawing to a close. But being home doesn’t mean the adventure — or the wonder — is over:

While spending a few days in Mystic last month, I took note of my fellow tourists and how they behaved. I realized they followed a few simple guidelines, and that their approach could just as easily be applied to time spent in your own home town as well as places far and wide:
- Be enthusiastically interested in everything there is to see and do — there’s nothing like it anywhere else in the world.
- Take lots of pictures — even if it means getting up in the middle of your entrée to do so.
- Eat lots of ice cream — the official fuel of tourists everywhere.
- Enjoy your companions — not just the people already with you, but also anyone else in your general vicinity. They’re out to have a nice time, too!
