Why are some trips and holidays, or adventures as I like to call them, better than others? The best ones and some special experiences linger longer and clearer in your mind. With the right triggers, vivid memories lead to major flashbacks, getting your heart racing and bringing tears to your eyes.The choice of holiday venue for two separate occasions could not have been more exciting - Manhattan in New York and New Orleans.
