I’ve had some time recently to do several different things, including planning my next trip. I’ve always wanted to visit the United Kingdom, and I hope, after all this, I can finally make it!

Capitals such as London, Belfast, Edinburgh and Cardiff offer travelers a variety of history, culture and entertainment. Whether enjoying views of Big Ben and Buckingham Palace in London, shopping for fine textiles in Edinburgh, or exploring ancient moors and castles by car in Northern Ireland and Wales, the UK offers something for every taste and style.
One of the destinations I’m most excited about is Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland, because it’s famous for its tradition, culture and festivals. To be honest, I’ve been looking around globaltravelerusa.com for more information about what I could do or see there, besides the research I’ve been doing for years. I know there are some basic things I need to do, like take a long walk through the center to discover the World Heritage sites of the Old City and the New City, as well as the museums and galleries. Then stop to enjoy a delicious meal made from fresh Scottish products before heading to any of the many events taking place in Edinburgh, such as the famous cultural festivals in the summer or the music, lights and Ceilidh festivals during winter. Of course, right now, everything is pretty uncertain due to the virus, but I’m positive. I know we will travel again.
Maybe we can’t travel yet, but doing research and hoping for our next trip is a good distraction. The time will come when we’ll be able to do all the things that for now we can only imagine.

Nov 5, 2024Set Off on a Tour of Extraordinary Mechanical Clocks Around the World
It’s approaching 3 o’clock in the afternoon in Bern. Jutting slightly into view at the end of the uneven stone street in the Swiss city’s historic heart stands a medieval tower adorned with the famous 15th-century “time bell,” Zytglogge. A small gathering forms at the tower’s base as the clock prepares to announce the hour — an event heralded by the crowing of a golden rooster, music and a dance of mechanical figures that include an assortment of jolly bears.
