I have written about 90 of them, and I was often thinking that the reports did not flow naturally for me. I thought about it for a while and had an idea that the following sequence might flow slightly better: 0. Title and Introduction (as is) 1. Overview (as is) 2. Sights 3. Favourite spots 4. What's really great 5. Hangouts 6. Restaurants 7. Nightlife 8. Accommodation 9. Other recommendations I am not sure how much work it would cause to change the sequence in the report engine, but I just wondered what you thought. --- Open your eyes. Free your mind. Touch lives.

The present lay-out is an improvement on an older one. It is still not ideal. I wish we could modify the the standard headings ourselves. Standard headings may be a good for beginning writers and flexible ones for advanced writers. --- “I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel’s sake.

I am obviously oblivious of previous discussions. I wrestled with the idea to eventually say something, having struggled somewhat with the current sequence. Well, I guess I should quit then. Not quit writing but stop whining about it. Kind regards Krys --- Open your eyes. Free your mind. Touch lives. Sink into the different. Travel and belong. Profile photo: Palma de Mallorca.

II like your suggestion of the new sequence. I'd love to hear what others think. [edited by marianne at 2008-10-12 17:38] --- “I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel’s sake.
