Student Trip to Ireland and possibly England. (11/20/2008)
|
you should check out Limerick city, despite the bad press its quite a nice city with some interesting history and a good night life, just be careful at night there. a must to go and see is Bunratty, Co. Clare - medieval castle, folk park etc. also they run a medieval banquet and a Traditional Irish Night ( roughly about 35). The traditional Irish night is a must to go see, excellent show/dinner entertainment..

planning visit to LONDON (11/20/2008)
|
One of my favourite places to stay is London's South Bank, especially in December. Theres a great selection of cafes, bars and restaurants for all budgets. Its within easy walking distance from Covent Garden, Soho, Westminster and the City of London.
Theatre at Christmas is full of festive spirit and offers an array of productions. Whether youre visiting with children or having a romantic break with a partner, theyll be a pantomime or West End musical to amuse you.
If you fancy starting on ...

London for the 1st time in dec (11/19/2008)
|
My advice is to try and visit as many of the free attractions as you can, such as Tate Modern, Science Museum, Changing the Guard and Westminster Abbey. There's lots of things happening all year round in London's South bank; free events, exhibitions, debates and festivals.
If you're set on visiting the attractions with admission fees then work out if it's worth investing in a London Pass. These aren't cheap but if you cram as many of the 50 free attractions in as you can, you should save ...

Castles in UK (11/19/2008)

My wife wants to go to Edinburgh castle but my question is, is there a lot more to see and do in Edinburgh for 5 days apart from the castle. I am not sure if 5 days in Edinburgh is such as good idea myself. Any thoughts?.

Imagine changing your name to "Scunthorpe Travelodge and qu (11/18/2008)
|
Perhaps it's a clever way to bag the domain name
www.scunthorpetravelodge.com
and sell it to the hotel chain Travel Lodge group for a large charity payment if accused of cybersquatting!
PS. The domain name listed above is actually available - I checked!
PPS. There *is* a travelodge in Scunthorpe!.

Gotta get your Christmas skates on in London! (11/18/2008)
|
There are also some other famous landmarks in London where you can go ice skating outdoors during the Christmas and New Year period.
Hampton Court Palace, Hyde Park, Kew Gardens, the Natural History Museum and Somerset House should all have rinks during the festive season..

Going to Edinburgh soon (11/13/2008)
|
I have been recently to Edinburgh for the first time. Stayed in an hostel, globetrotter inns, depends on whether you lived in hostels before or not, but I will highly recommend this hostel, you can get a double bed room if you dont want to live in 6 or 4 bed rooms which are more cheaper. This hostel is very big and has been turned from an hotel to the hostel. On one side it has Golf course and on other the river. The most exotic site for a hostel to be. The city is on 20 mins distance, buy ...

European Backpacking Trip - Music Festivals? (11/11/2008)
|
As for Balkans, Guca is the real thing, (in Serbia)
the most traditional one around here and probably most attended, every year more and more come
(all this, if you want to listen to really traditional music for these areas)
otherwise, there are other festivals that provide foreign singers and bands
but IMO, the traditional thing is the real experience, coz u can listen to foreign music at many places :P
cheers.
