Trip - B'ham - Lake District - Edinburgh
Here is a map of my trip to Scotland and Ireland:
On the first day I stopped in Birmingham (has been one of my favorite cities for years) for lunch, then headed up to Edinburgh through the Lake District (northwestern part of England). The Lake District had some of the most beautiful scenery in England.
Several people have told me that Edinburgh is a very nice city, and it lived up to my expectations. It's definitely one of the nicest cities in Europe, perhaps the nicest I've seen so far. It had a great (and rare) combination of oldness and cleanliness. Edinburgh Castle wasn't the best-looking castle I've seen, but it looked awesome on top of the hill, especially at night. Even many of the regular buildings were castle-like, which gave the city a very neat atmosphere.
