Bingo!

We quite often make multiple trips to the same city, during different seasons and see different things every time. It takes us 4 or 5 weeks worth of visits before we begin to feel like we have really seen most of what a city has to offer. And even then we will keep going back if we like the place; Boston, Asheville, Savannah, Seattle, San Diego and NYC are a few that come to mind.
