Travelers, They Just Keep Going And Going

Here's an interesting article from the New York Times. Thomas Crampton reports that "For all the natural and manmade disasters that have struck tourist destinations over the past year or so, travelers seem more determined than ever to leave home. In fact, not only did calamities like the tsunami in the Indian Ocean or the bombings in Egypt and London do little to slow leisure travel, but the number of people visiting affected travel destinations has, in most cases, bounced quickly back to a higher level than before a disaster struck."

Crampton looks at areas that were affected in 2005 including London,
Phuket, Egypt, and Key West.
