Welcome to the September 8, 2010 edition of carnival of cities!
There has been a wealth of great submissions this month, with many being about those important topics, food and drink. This blog carnival is about cities, so I hope you find a city that interests you, whether it is one you have already visited or one you are planning (or dreaming) of seeing one day. Check out the links, and don’t forget to comment here!

Great collection of cities – thanks 🙂
… although calling Stonehenge overrated (I’m referring to Matt O’Brien’s contribution above – there doesn’t seem to be a comments option on his site) – I couldn’t disagree more. It’s quite possible to walk among – and touch – the stones, as travellers have done for centuries. You just have to book with English Heritage in advance and prepare to be there at 5 am. It’s simply magical to watch the sun rise at Stonehenge! Way bigger wow-factor than Mount Rushmore.
