I'm not one of media people. It's difficult to keep the pace of writing here. If I only need to watch the games on the Internet, it's good. However, we have our daily life, right?
From next, I'll be back to the world. Our travel destinations are not only to the Britain, but other countries too. Next I'll start with "Travel Stuff."
Recently, people watch movies when they want to know their destinations. Sometimes, they reflect their customs, and the traditions.
In the Britain, films are also important. Do you remember Harry Potter scenes in London? They also have some "Nursery Rhymes." Naturally, "Sherlock Holmes" is also from London. If you are a little old traveler, you may long for the Baker street.
If you go to BFI's homepage, you can watch old footage from the end of 19th century. Here is a footage from London Olympics in 1908.

These films are very precious heritages, and we can watch the now and then. The films include a lot of historical moment such as the marriage of Queen Elizabeth II(color).
Films shows not only the fantasy worlds, but also some noble parts of the British culture. These years, filmmakers tried to show a little noble parts.
"The King's Speech" (2009)

"The Queen" (2006)
"The Kings Speech" talks about a "stammer" king. The Iron Lady is about "Margaret Thatcher" a former prime minister in the Britain. "The Queen" is about the death of Diana, and sound Queen Elizabeth's behaviors.
If you want to watch a little charming part, "Love Actually" is one of them. It's a love story around the British prime minister.

What do you think? The Britain is closer to you?
If you plan to go to somewhere for your vacation, please try a film that related to your destinations. Is your imagination correct, or different? It should be one of funs and the purpose of your travel.
In fact, the Olympic games are now on Day 14. London 2012 has a lot of medal competitions. Some of them like Boxing and Wrestling are one to one. They are just the "win or lose" conditions.
