Travel Tales: England, Ireland & The UK

Collects travel tales of one of the world's multi-faceted favorite destinations. The allure of the UK or Ireland is a magnet to comfort and convenience, yet marvelous sightseeing, and is one of the easiest adventures to make without worrying about the language.

            "Comfort" and "convenience," because, for the English speaker, a foreign language is not necessary. Gone are the fears of negotiating menus; it is the relief travelers feel.

            There are occasional different accents and some expressions, but these are less a bother and more cute bumps on the culture road that bring occasional smiles.

Unlike Mexico, for example, where safety and security necessitate keeping a wary eye on things… but with Ireland or the UK you can subtract that right out of the equation: fear is gone!

Driving on the "wrong side of the road" can be scary, but rather think of it as a fun adventure. You haven't experienced true exhilaration until you've mastered driving on the left!

            Also, factor into the equation — ancestry! What a great draw that is, for there is scarcely anywhere else in the world that bests ancestry hunting in the UK or Ireland. The possibility of finding a long-lost relative is huge!

Of course, we have roots all over, but for many Americans and other English speakers, there's hardly a one of us who is not touched by the hint of a possible ancestor lost and found again somewhere, somehow in Ireland or the UK.

            And still, there's one more significant draw for people to the UK: the interest in archeology, the metaphysical, spiritual, and even the occasional paranormal including UFOs and crop circles. Surely, Britain and Ireland also have an ancient history replete with mysteries that are ever more alluring.

            For all these reasons a sightseeing or ancestry adventure to Ireland or the UK is unexcelled anywhere else in all your travels.
