There was something breathtaking seeing Londonderry for the first time. It lies in a valley divided in two by the river and it is surprisingly lush for a city. There’s a cathedral that is the focal point in the view and homes sprawling up the hills. N.I. has some great cities that many Americans still won’t go and visit. I really recommend this place along with the rest of N.I.

It has been several years since I was here. I love the culture, the food, the ocean, the recreation. Hawaii is tiny but it doesn’t feel that way when you are there. I recommend snorkling or Scuba if you are certified. It is great that my Dad lived there as a kid and still knows some of the less touristy spots around. If you don’t like so many tourist traps, avoid Oahu and Maui.

I visited Austin a couple of times at night. 6th street is nothing I’ve ever seen before and I’m from Los Angeles. Thursday nights are unbelievably crazy. The party doesn’t end on 6th though. The bars and clubs extend about several streets in all directions. This city is great for young partiers.

I have family living here and I miss Chicago a lot. There is sooo much to do and tons to see. I think Chicago has some of the best museums in America and a hip downtown and I hope one day I’ll be able to return.

I don’t like whiskey EXCEPT Bushmills’s 16 year that’s only available at the distillery. I have never tasted a whiskey so smooth in my life. The only problem is that it is only available at the Bushmills distillery and it is super expensive. When I go next time, I may have to splurge. Oh yeah, the admission for the tour includes a sample of any one of their whiskeys including that 16 year.

I miss my home in California and I especially miss my in-n-out.

I wanna go home! How can I NOT want to be there?

great night life!!

My husband is from Belfast, Northern Ireland and it is always fun to go and visit his family. There is plenty do there and it’s a pretty modern city. I recommend visiting there if the opportunity arises. Most Americans have only heard about the troubles, which by the way are over, and don’t make their way to Belfast or any of N.I. I have to say the most beautiful parts of Ireland as a whole is in the north. I particularly like Ballycastle, where my husband’s Grandmother lives.
