What places should I visit in Ireland, Scotland, Greece and Spain?
Q. I am looking at visting these places above, but I am not sure what cities I should visit? I was thinking Dublin and around there for Ireland, and for Spain- Barcelona or Madrid, any ideas? As for Scotland or Greece I am not really sure, possibly Athens for Greece, any ideas? Any recommendations on what I should do in these countries and how many days would be ideal in each of the countries or cities?

A. I have never been in Ireland or Scotland. Spain is beautifully. Greece ? I would avoid that chauvinistic country - they maltreat minorities there, they hate jews, they throw black people in the sea... There are terrorist organizations on Crete (EPEK), many communist terrorist groups in Athens... Even the pry-ministers husband has been killed and the offender still is not found...

Asked by Danny boy - Fri Jul 3 23:29:54 2009 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments
A. The water can be a bit chilly. It depends how cold you can stand it! It's OK once your chest is under water (once you pluck up the nerve). It's warmest on the south coast. July and August are best. A shortie wet suit is more than adequate if you want to stay in the sea for long periods in the cooler months.

Nearer the top was more like Ireland, (all green fields and beautiful beaches) Parts of the North island reminded me if France, and on top of all that you have bubbling mud and geezers. Fabulous country. But be ready to go on a 10k trek and think its a good idea! As for Scotland, I loved the highlands. There's is something so earthy and sensual about the place it gave me ideas, it if wasn't so cold, LOL. People seem to love Ireland when they are here, its seems to roll along at its own pace outside of Dublin. If you do come here just enjoy the criac and relax

Asked by gorgeous - Wed Jan 7 21:24:41 2009 - - 4 Answers - 1 Comments
A. There is no all-encompasing cultural expression because they are completly different countries/cultures. In terms of Geography, an acceptable and unoffensive word/phrase is 'The IONA' (Islands of the North Atlantic) Culturally: Ireland and Scotish = Celtic (although the Celts arrived late, their culture seems to be dominant here) England = Anglo Saxon (German-type culture, displaced to England)

Are people in Ireland Scotland Isle of Man Northern Ireland Cornwall and Britanny related to The Welsh?
Q. or could possibly have Welsh ancestry because people in Ireland Scotland Northern Ireland Isle of Man Cornwall and Brittany have Celtic roots so is it possible Irish people Scottish people Northern Irish Manx people and Bretons have Welsh ancestry mixed into their blood
Asked by maxiumus - Wed Aug 26 15:41:47 2009 - - 5 Answers - 1 Comments
A. Yes, the Celts were the original inhabitants of Britain, before the Anglo-Saxons invaded. They pushed the Celts to the north (who became the Scottish) to the west (who became the Welsh) and to the south-west (who became the Cornish). This is also proven by the existence of the Celtic languages, Scots Gaelic came with settlers from Ireland, but Welsh, Cornish and Breton are all descendants of the ancient British language. The Bretons moved from Cornwall to Brittany to escape the invading Anglo-Saxons, which is why the Cornish language is mutually intelligible with Breton to an extent.

A. It really depends on how much time you have. A common problem that people have is trying to do too much with not enough time. Ireland is one of my most favorite places on planet Earth. Dublin is a blast! The west coast is so green that your brain can't process all of its shades. If you go to Ireland, check out the following areas: Galway, the Gap of Dunloe, Killarney, the Ring of Kerry, and Dublin. Just remember, you don't want to spend all of your time on a train or in a car. Plan reasonable trips and explore all those areas have to offer.

A. UK: 61.5 million England: 51.5 million Scotland: 5.2 million Wales: 3 million Northern Ireland: 1.8 million So, about 84% of the UK population lives in England at the moment. But no, this has not always been the case. A few hundred years ago Scotland accounted for about 25% of the population of Great Britain but there were two main developments that changed all that.

Can you help me plan a trip to Ireland and Scotland?
Q. I have to get away, I have never been off the North American content. I am poor, but have saved up some money to go on a trip for 2 weeks. I have narrowed down my destination to Ireland and Scotland. I am researching them on the web, but have no sense of either place, and wouldn't know where to start. I would like to start in Ireland, make my way to Scotland and then home. I don't want to go on any organized tours, just to travel independantly. Any recomendations?? Stories?? Suggestions of links to transportation sites in either places. Thanks in advance!

The bus is cheaper to get around in Ireland than the train I think Edinburgh is the best place to stay in Scotland (just my opinion) but it can be expensive try the hostels there as well - this is a good one but depends when you are going ( Again cheaper to bus than to take the train - website for bus service in scotland Best way to get from Ireland to Scotland or Scotland to Ireland is by air - Ryan air is a no frills airline which does the Dublin - Edinburgh route Most expensive… [cont.]
