Well, if you read my post you will know what I am talking about... what happened to my grandmothe was really bad.
I would like to say that in fact not all americans are racist and disrespectful. I read many nice responses and I would like to thank those ones for understanding my feeling and situation, I really appreciate that and those showed values and honesty. but unfortunately, most of the replies were just giving confirmation about how disrespecful and racist most americans can be, low human quality (I am not talking about all Amercins). Many replies were in fact racist and rude about a true fact, something real that is happening everyday. I understand that you have laws, but you also should know differences about real criminals and a misunderstanding. I mean I am not the only one who thinks this way.
To the truly racist and disrespectful and ego selfish people out there... I am truly sorry for you for the path you have chossen in life.
Thanks again to the nice and honest ones!!!

I'm spending one day only in Bristol
What do you suggest doing?

Since it's one day only I don't want to spend the whole day in a museum / gallery, I'd like to get around a bit but at the same time would rather select 2/3 places to visit rather than wonder aimlessly!

I was thinking of making a long weekend trip there in January or February with my husband but I don't want to go if it's going to be too cold. We're from Maine so we're used to below freezing but the Denver website says it's typically 60's during the day?!

i was surfing on expedia.com. last january (i picked days that were dated mid-week to avoid peak hours), i went to orlando and spent like $140 only. i booked the flight in november. now, however, i was looking at the prices now -- and see that days dated mid-week of january, the price is now $300+!!! 2 years ago, when i booked a flight to orlando in the summer, it was $180, now it's $222 -- did the prices change all of the sudden? and are these more likely permanent?

is there a difference in dates when you book a flight? i dont' want to book an expensive flight right now, only to see the price go down later on. do you think that it may be $222 if you book the flight in august, and it will go down to $140 (more or less) if booked in november?

what gives? why do prices go up and down and the most important question is what is the best date to book a flight and save money.

im thinking of going to california next summer -- but i want to be able to save money.

There's plenty of stores in Lake George that sell t-shirts for as little as 3$ and sweathshirts too such as Riley's Souvenirs on Canada St. However, out of all the stores that sell Lake George souvenirs it is really hard to find a website that sells any. Please help!!

I'm going to Barcelona in a few weeks and will be staying at an apt for 3 nights. Segrada Familia is cheaper and is advertised as only 10 mins from Las Ramblas by metro. The EL Raval apt is advertised as only 5 minutes walking distance to Las Ramblas. I heard Las Ramblas is where all the nightlife is. We also plan on taking the tourist bus.

Both apts are about ten minutes walking distance from metro stops. WHich would be better to stay at? It's my first time to Barcelona so any advice appreciated. Thanks.
