Scotland

Well, Scotland was wonderful. My bestfriend and I went there with absolutely nothing but
our car prearranged. We landed in Edinburgh, rented the car and began a two week road trip.
Driving was hairy but fun(Ilove to drive). We stayed in B&B's and just took our time. It is a
wonderful country with a lot of history. So many castles, churches and ruins. There isn't
a lot of nightlife, the evenings are generally spent in a pub. There is a real absence of gay
culture - no bars or restaurants. The Scots are still pretty traditional. We were called a
'couple of modern girls' on a few occasions. I guess that is were London has the advantage -
lots of nightlife, live theatre and an established gay community. In London I didn't feel
safe whereas in Scotland throughout the entire trip I felt safe and secure. The people are
so nice. My bestfriend was so impressed witht he country she is trying to move there.
