Another new feature that will be posted on The Travel Adventures of Miss Molly is what I like to call "Discovering Far Away Lands". (Creative, I know) These posts will focus on one, two or maybe more countries a week and will spotlight a specific location or landmark in that country. A map will be included for those of you that are geographically challenged (is that the correct term?) and of course some history. It wouldn't be a Miss Molly post if there wasn't some history included! So sit back and enjoy your trip around the world!
This week we have three interesting locations for you; Ireland, Spain and Portugal.
Ireland
Suspended seven stories above the ground, the Blarney Stone can be found at the top of Blarney Castle Tower. Known worldwide as the legendary Stone of Eloquence - kiss it and you will be filled with the gift of gab.
Spain
Toledo, Spain - "Holy Toledo" isn't just an expression! This historic city in central Spain is positively packed with religious sites. A unique and richly diverse city, Toledo features Arab, Jewish, Christian, and even Roman and Visigothic elements. Toledo is located in the Castille region of central Spain.
Portugal
The Stone house is located in Nas montanhas de Fafe, Portugal, epidermises the trend of using sustainable materials in your home. This resistance is mainly ensured by two giant boulders which are also walls for the unusual residence. This Flintstone like house seems like a perfect getaway from the stress and the commotion of modern living.
