Welcome to the first Carnival of Cities for 2010. This edition sports a wide range of topics from a lot of cool bloggers, many which are taking part for the first time and it's a real bumper volume today.

Liz over at Everything Everywhere posted the September blog carnival a couple of days ago, and my piece on the copper mine in Falun, Sweden, is included. Many thanks to Liz!

Liz over at Travelogged included my Parks in Berlin post in the latest Anywhere, Everywhere Travel Blog Carnival.

I've got an inclusion in Nomadic Matt's blog carnival a few days ago.

I was recently invited to take part in Anthony McCune's blog carnival to celebrate his 3 solid years of blogging. It's a great celebratory blog carnival with a large number of eclectic articles included.
