Am blogging over at Carina about how some places remind you of home - except when they're entirely different. Do come and share your thoughts!

PS Dreams of a Hero number 1 at Carina. Can't stop grinning.

I read it yesterday. I love them. I wish I could read more of their adventures.

It also reminded me of how surprised I was, as a child to find that England had 'our' place-names.(Falmouth, Barnstable, Plymouth, Chatham) My mother said just what you said-- they were homesick.

It was fun for me seeing my childhood world of Cape Cod from the outside. Made me homesick too.

I'm so pleased you liked them. Have mailed you another story of theirs (can you let me know it got there?)

We have great fun with the map of Massachusetts, marking off the names which are from here.

lol I'm still chuffed knowing there's actually a Zutphen (it's more like a crossing, but still...) in the US :)

Makes me smile every time.

LOL I love place names to start with and the connections made make it even better!
