Was Vanessa Mae born a violin prodigy or did she become one through blood, sweat, tears and hours upon hours of practice? By all accounts, it appears that her mother was a major force in driving her success. From the age of 4 when Vanessa began...

One of the best beaches in the area. At low tide there are loads of rock pools, rocks and a clean sandy beach which disappears at high tide. Clean clear water but unfortunately no life guard nor toilet facilities.

This low priced hotel/hostel was recommended by a friend as being good for short stays. It fitted my needs perfectly and I will be using it as my base for any future trips to London.

Standard tourist fare but not bad and amazing value. Fixed price menus great. Try the fondue, raclette or pelas to get a feel for local cheesy dishes. Side salads not great. You'll leave sated and stuffed.

Very busy italian-food place but very middle of the road. One good pizza (salami), one great one (calabrese), a poor green salad and poor italian 'garlic bread'. Good fast service tho and a total bargain, like most things here, compared to Ireland.

You need two days to do this properly. I felt like a small child runnning around looking at some of the incredible displays.

A reasonable introduction to the (colonial) history of Australia, that promises just a little more than it delivers.
