Imagine taking the friendliness of Ireland, the architecture of Prague, the glamour of London, the sophistication of Paris and combining them all into one place. Bingo. You would have Edinburgh, Scotland. This city is truly "all that, and a bag of chips...." The people are amazingly friendly and have the quickest wit (a tad sarcastic, which of course I applaud)....The Scots are still governed by the British, so their queen is "the" queen. They have not sought independence from Britain in the same way Ireland did. So, there is very much a love/hate relationship with the Brits. But, the Scots (as far as I can tell) love America and Americans (despite the Bush years).
If you want warm hearts in a cool country (with really great quality air, by the way), then visit Scotland. Just do it before November since it gets dark at 3pm....
