Scotland, Great Britain
Need To Return With More Time!
Just took a quick 4 day auto tour which included Edinburgh, Stirling, St. Andrews, Aberdeen, Inverness, Loch Ness, and Glasgow. GREAT time.

over 3 years agoI was there as a contract security worker in 1989. Could have been a beautiful city but the tribal warfare of the countryside will never allow it to prosper.
The US Consulate that was built on the site of the old Russian embassy out past K-7 has, I understand, been destroyed since I left – I can find nothing on a satelite image that even looks familiar to the construction site, the old US comppound, or the MGTC (Mogadishu Golf and Tennis Club – sort of a joke)
is now a fairly overgrown suburb, but still, it has all the elements you need, arts at Montpelier, history at the Laurel Museum, music in the summer at the 8th Street paviliion (McCully Field, I think they call it). Plenty of shopping, restaurants, BUT, the county just passed a NO SMOKING law that is in effect even in bars. Otherwise nice and central to any visit to Maryland, 25 miles from Baltimore, 25 miles from DC, and 20 miles from Annapolis. Don’t forget to wave to the firemen!
