Thanks be-bop. The highest point is Arthur's Seat, is it not?

The Baths at Bath are absolutely awesome... the audio tour is so worth it. It is about 9 pounds for students, don't know what the regular price is. I also love Liverpool... it is sooo fun at night. I can't remember where I went when I was there, probably because I was drunk. Still... fantastic city. Stratford is also pretty neat, but very touristy. You don't need long to see it.

I like Cambridge better than Oxford... you can't like both :).

Have a great time... I am soooo jealous.

Holidays in Paris are phenomenal. I was there for fete de la musique and Bastille day a few years ago - I've never had so much fun in my life. Amazing how the entire city hits the streets and truly celebrates. Even July 4th was a ton of fun. Just ... fantastic.

Buy cheap red wine and bagettes, and saunter along the catwalks above the Seine while drinking from the bottle and soaking in the atmosphere. Best times I've ever had.

Thats right NBN Arthurs Seat to the right and Salisbury Crags to the left.
Been a few years sice Ive been up there but the views are so cool all the Way over to Fife and right down the east coast.
10 minutes from the middle of the town and there is this huge expanse of green.
Its one good thing about Edinburgh there are a great many parks in the city.

It's getting close now, so any of you who may want to hook up need to PM me with a way to contact you. I will have my laptop with me but there's no guarantee on when I'll be able to get to the web once I'm there.

jag, do you know how to get a list of the hot spots in London? I mean WiFi, not strip clubs. I'll hit those in Paris.

Bump.

Because plt's post seemed to drop me way down the queue.

I want to soak up some local color, people!

been away, sorry. Most of the chain cafes are with one or another hotspot provider but you have to sign up for most, I must admit I usually don't bother. Google will be your friend on that one. Big coffee chains are Costa Coffee, Starbucks and Cafe Nero.

Across the Firth of Forth from Edinburgh lies the village of Lower Largo. There is a statue and a small museum dedicated to Alexander Selcraig(Selkirk).
Who? Robinson Crusoe. Not the guy that wrote it...the guy that lived it, for 28 years on an island off the coast of South America. :)
