cutty sark

The Isle of Sark in the Channel Islands off the cost of Normandy seems like a fascinating place, where the only vehicles allowed are horse-drawn vehicles, bicycles, and tractors. It was first inhabited by the French pirate "Eustace the Monk," is actually the last feudal state in Europe, and was the site of the moderately famous Operation Basalt during WWII. I want to go.
