If it's not Scottish...

[moonwise]

...IT'S CRAP!

I'm going to St. Andrews, Scotland over Labor Day weekend (Sept. 1 - 5)! Husband's work is having a conference with the R&A, so I'm going to go along with him for some sightseeing. If any of you UK folks are going to be in the area, let me know, because I'm going to be on my own for Monday and Tuesday.

It's silly, but the thing I'm looking forward to the most is being able to get a Schweppes ginger beer WHENEVER I WANT. That stuff is a little bit of heaven.

Is it pretty there?

I'll buy you some Scotch! :)

Hah, the trip sounds good!
And your icon. It is mesmerizing and scary at the same time. :x

Thanks! :)

The icon is the former governor of this state, whose record was so bad that coming out of the closet was merely a screen to distract from all the crap he'd pulled in office.

I'm gonna start calling you the roaming gnome. You're a travelin' fool. XD Sounds like it'll be a blast though. Take lots of pics! :D

I have to admit that the amount of travel we've been doing is rather unprecedented. ^_^;

On an unrelated note, if you had to pick between seeing the Chefs and the Pats, which one would you choose?

[ladyofthesea.livejournal.com]

I saw the Chiefs already so I'd go with the Patriots. I tried looking into getting tickets to their game against Indy in November but they're damn expensive! *wails*

I hope you have a nice time :)

I really should grab this opportunity to meet you, now that you actually are on this continent.

Where in Scotland is St. Andrews? Far away from Aberdeen or Edinbourgh?

It's a train ride from Edinburgh, but I would be hard pressed to tell you how far a ride it is from Edinburgh. I was thinking of taking the train in there one day to do some sightseeing, because otherwise I'd be on my own until my husband's meetings let out. It certainly would be stellar to meet up!

[fireceremony.livejournal.com]

It certainly would!

I've checked a few fare prices but they're not as cheap or as direct as I thought they would. There used to be direct flights from here to Scotland but apparently no longer. I'll have to call the air line company tomorrow.

Are you certain you'll go on the trip?
