After reading Ray Bradbury's Martian Chronicles and the John Carter books when I was a kid, I wanted to live on Mars. But in reality its not likely I would come across an egg-laying princess or images of long dead relatives, boat trips on the Martian canals and probably not even a thoat. Reality sucks.

Reality isn't so bad (except for the sin of course), it just pales in comparison to what our imaginations can think up!

For sure. Years ago I read a book from around 1900 called A Honeymoon In Space. It was about a young married couple who went to all the planets in the solar system for a honeymoon, and the adventures they had. I thought that would be kind of a cool way to spend a honeymoon.

Sounds very cool. Too bad the space age has taken a lot of those old story ideas away from us. They were quite fanciful back then.

They were. Some of those old pulp stories from the 20's and 30's were mostly impossible BS, but still very entertaining.

I'd love to visit Fantastica (from The Neverending Story), but I'd want a guaranteed way home! :shock:

As for a "real" place...no place would ever live up to what an author has shown me.

What is grief, if not love persevering?

Grief is just love with no place to go.

Hmm... this is a hard one really. I don't think I'd move to a place that I've read about in a book. This stems from the fact that I read mostly fantasy and horror which really isn't too appealing. :shock:
