Isle of Man
Isle of Man is a small island that is well known for Manx cats (the ones without tails) and many tourist sites. It has a celtic history.
Ireland
I received my first two postcard from Ireland this week. They were through a direct swap with a wonderful woman on Facebook.
Nothern Ireland, within its compact area, encircles a wealth of surpassing scenic splendour. Vibrant, fresh and green in appearance, the natural features it encompasses are as diverse as they are exhilarating, from barren plains to expanses of lakelands, and from low-lying areas to lofty mountain ranges. Quite apart from its aesthetic charm, historic castles, and ruins are scattered lavishly throughout the country, recounting tales from Nothern Ireland's rich history.
