Where was that fairy tales land I'm talking about? Well I bet that you would say Sweden, Norway, or any Scandinavian territory. Well I know that most of the time that fairy tales often related with this area. But to me it's not always that area. Well it's true that most of the fairy tales comes from this area, but there's also one area particularly 'donate' to the world of fairy tales. It's Ireland. Although not as much as Scandinavian for example, Ireland is well know for their fairy tales and folk stories, and also for their stunning land scene. And so I'm planning to go there for this weekend for a vacation.
