Yet, I was born and I live in a town by the Sea, the lack of It's sound, sight, and smell would be too much for me to bear for a long time. I would live in the Grey Havens, I would learn what I could of Cirdan's people shipcraft, I would go fishing to the shore everytime I could, and I would be just a day away from the inns of the Shire, in case I wanted some country sights and sounds as well as a cold refreshing beer, yet, I'll always go back to the Sea.

Gray Havens: looks nice and open, but still with a bit of mountain around. Decent civilisation, place for a workshop and the toys. And with that time/space anomaly also the right place to attempt an radio Internet link. And other Elves to have fun using it. Near ideal for me. Mirkwood: lots of forrest. But living in caves, no sun? Lorien: a bit to closed off. 1st age: Menegroth and Nargothrond: see Mirkwood. Gondolin: see Lorien. Falas: see Gray Havens, minus the anomaly. > If Elvish places are out They are in ME, so why shoudld they be out?
