This is really a lovely place to visit, and maybe in future we can get to here. Great pictures and strawberries are always fun to pick. I picked apples and pears on my trip to Utah parks in the US. Fantastic hiking and adventure if you would like to see.

Wow, Maria... great hometown page. Oast houses, straddling stools, worrying sheep, seven sisters, all sorts of things. And a place that serves rabbit and bacon pie to boot. :)

Me again, just checking back to read your new tips from the past half year. Speaking of Deep Fried Mars Bars, have you noticed that JessH has posted a video of herself eating one in Edinburgh? http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/vv/1394/
