What are you drinking right now?

Lemon Farmhouse, outside in the bar, with some college football.

Looks great! Are you doing the Mediterranean region? I think you were in Croatia previously is that correct?
Yes, winding down in Roma now. Euros sure don’t go very far, it’s a miracle there hasn’t been a revolt. I’m not just talking tourist stuff, basically the 50 euro works out to the US buying power of around 25-30 $ from what I e seen.

Athens traffic is still completely nuts. As are the Rome pedestrian crowds on the weekend

Going to try for one in Rome tomorrow if all goes to plan ( so, IOW, hoping for a miracle)
 
Pint of Kilkenny to celebrate the booking of our trip to Edinburgh next year. Step daughter graduates from Veterinary school and the trip will be her graduation gift.

While there, I highly recommend the Real Mary King's Close tour. Gives a whole new meaning to living underground. The Scottish Parliament building is built on top of part of the old city which was slowly condemned over the years. Apparently in recent times, there's been a major fire on Arthur's Seat. No clue what burned or what didn't but if it's still open, you won't get a finer view of the castle.

Enjoy it, but keep a raincoat handy. If you don't like the weather, just wait 5 minutes, it'll change.

The missus and I did out own tour of all of Scotland. Two things we did wrong, both of which was time allocation. We didn't spend enough time on Skye, nor in the east coast area around Aberdeen. Both were outstanding. If you get time to go to the west side of the country (about 2-3 hours drive, actually) then I highly recommend the train ride from Ft. William through Glenfinnan out to Malaig and back. We both want to go back. It's one of the friendliest places I've ever been.
