Amazing site... it was like going back in time! Kind of sad when we had to leave without being able to see everything, again I was last to get on the buss..lol I was very close to purchase one of the medieval swords they were selling, that would have been the greates souvenir. Some american guy that saw me looking at the sword told me I could get a better sword at the http://www.rennfest.com/ (Renaissance Festival, Maryland) for a little more money and without the dilema that it could be trying to get the piece into the US... so, now you know people, if you wanna have a similar experience without leaving the country, drive down to Maryland!

- I brought back with me a copy of “The Mail”, major newspaper from London. The Mail is well known for being the best Sunday’s newspaper, it basically covers a lot of the national news, contains a lot of advertisement, sports, fashion and art. After comparing it with our NY Times I found that they are a bit different, the NY Times is more about political national and international news and it doesn’t focus too much in advertisements. My impression about almost all major Newspapers, TV Channels and British magazines are that they are very similar to the US ones, they have a great variety of publications that cover all important topics.
- My experience after the trip to Ireland and the UK has been somewhat different from what I was expecting. The city of Dublin, even when it is recognized in the world as an important capital, it is really a small place, better known for its nightlife, etc. Wales, or at least what we got to see about this country, was pretty much a cheep farmers land. I personally found that London was more of an important metropolis, with a great combination of history and innovative places, which makes it a very interesting visit.
