Advantages: fantastic tasting food Disadvantages: I havent stayed overnight
...The Old Mill Hotel is situated in Motherwell, North Lanarkshire. I have been to The Old Mill on numerous occassions for Sunday lunches and Weddings. The Old Mill is a very popular place to host Wedding receptions and parties.The Old Mill hotel Is less than a 5 minute drive from Strathclyde Country Park (aka M&D's) and approx 3 minutes drive from Motherwell town centre.
The Old Mill Hotel has 8 en-suite bedrooms, which are reasonably priced. As I have only ever had lunches and been a guest at wedding receptions at the hotel I cant comment on what the rooms are like.
The hotel has a large function suite- which caters for all occasion's including weddings, birthday parties and christenings. The suite holds 100 for a meal and 160 people in total for evening entertainment.
The food at the hotel is great and they serve quite big portions...

Advantages: Beautiful country Disadvantages: Quite expensive and very cold in winter
...are able to speak it. In schools Swiss people also get the chance to learn Spanish, Italian, Latin and Greek – so go mad and test the citizen’s language skills!
Money:
It is quite an expensive country. In my opinion comparable with England. Prices to go shopping are slightly more expensive and if you want to stay in a fancy region, you have to be prepared to pay even more. The prices for Hotels are dear and you will not find as many youth hostels as you would in England. However, the standard is high, so you do not have to be afraid of having coach roaches as your roommates. One Swiss Franc is approximately 2.4 Pounds Sterling.
Things to do and see:
Summer: My tip for the summer is either Tessin, the warmest region or Wallis, which is beautiful for walks and bicycle rides. If you visit Tessin, do not miss the regular Market either in Lucarno...

Advantages: High in the alps, Duty Free Disadvantages: Long Transfers
...My wife and I went skiing in Livigno in March 2000 looking for somewhere a little cheaper and smaller where we could work on our skills.
Accommodation
We stayed at the Garni Francescato, which offered new clean rooms with ensuite facilities. While not overly large, they were fine for a week where little time was to be spent indoors. The breakfast room/bar, was downstairs and offered an alternative place for relaxation. TV’s were in all the rooms, as well as a personal safe.
Advantages
Livigno’s main claim to fame is it’s Duty Free status. This means that no sales tax of any sort is charged on purchases. In practise this means that high duty items such as tobacco products and alcohol are good value, whereas lower duty items are simply reasonably cheap.
Livigno is based high up in the Swiss/Italian Alps. This means that you can...

My impressions of this game when I saw it advertised on the internet was that it looked like a completely different type of game that I'm used to seeing for the DS.
