Europe (Continental) - May 2007

It became extremely apparent to me yesterday while I was watching Eurovision, that places like the UK, France and Germany are worlds apart from countries such as Lithuania, Latvia and Slovenia.
I think that Western Europe, Eastern Europe, and Scandinavian countries should be separated into three different continents.
or is this a totally wrong way of thinking?

I was there today, to support our Republic, Democracy and Secularism. Over a million people were there to share the same atmosphere and to give the same msg. People coming from each side of the gulf have filled the ferries with red and white colored flags..And all the beautiful sea shore was in red from one end to the other upto where eyes could see.
I had never seen such a joyful, exciting, amasing view and never had I felt so proud of my country and my people..

THANK GOD THAT TURKEY IS and IS ALWAYS GOING TO BE A SECULAR COUNTRY !

Greece is one of the greatest tourist destinations in the world yet it's national carrier is amongst the slowest growing in Europe, They have a very modest fleet and a limited route map outside of Europe, What do you think makes Olympic lagging behind?!

We want something cool like a Hostel or Pensao. No big tacky hotels. I have been to Sintra before but never stayed. I would prefer something close to Palacio Nacional de Sintra and bars and places to eat. Help please.

It seems that where ever the English go they are not welcome. I can go anywhere in the world and say I'm from the UK and I don't get a warm welcome but the second I say I'm Scottish not English they are offering me drinks and women start talking to me.

Also in the eurovision song contest the UK never seems to do well.

Is it the simple fact that Europe does not like the English or is it because of the UK friendship with America.

After all from what I have heard the English and American are the two most hated countries in the world.

Why is that?

I was told that Omonia Square in Athens Greece is dangerous. Is this true? (Three well-traveled men in late 30's thinking about staying there.)

I see that there are many prepaid debit cards for Visa and Mastercard. I need to know which is the best for travel to Germany and the Czech Republic, which one has the lowest fees for ATM transactions in those countries. I also need one I can load as much as $2000 on at a time.

Set up fees, shipping, fees for this and that seem to add up when you look at the fine print on these prepaid cards.

Please help!

If you are from Portugal, what is your opinion of the investigation and what do you think the outcome will be?

The law seems to make it difficult for the police to make any statements, but here in the UK, it is very frustrating to work out what has happened and when we will have more information.

My boyfriend and I are staying at really nice hotels (Royal Myconian, etc) when we do the islands in Greece, but to cut back on costs, we went with budget hotels in Athens.

Has anyone been to the following hotels that we are staying at and what do you think of them (especially in terms of how clean and safe they are)?
- Apollonion Hotel
- Hotel Glaros
- Hotel Zinon (Best Western)
