-Went to Hampden Park, the stadium for the Scottish national team. It was badass. Cool pictures eventually
-Met a couple of Scots from Dundee. Drinking ensued. Always good to see Scotland from the local perspective.
-In Edinburgh right now. Hostel I'm at is supposed to be the highest rated in Scotland, but I liked the Glasgow one better. They don't have room tomorrow, so I'll be moving to a different part of town tomorrow.
-Edinburgh is definitely more touristy than Glasgow. I prefer Glasgow so far, but Edinburgh is definitely prettier. I'm going to try to head out to Easter Road to see my Hibs' stadium tomorrow, and then move on to various other attractions. I'm staying away from the standard tourist stuff, as it is much more expensive here (14 pounds just to go into the Castle). I'll keep you updated.
-Great shirts here. I've talked with quite a few Scots about football, and all of them are hoping so badly that USA beats England and that England plays Germany in the round of 16. They say nothing would piss off the English more. Shirts I have seen include "ABE: Anybody But England" and "I support two teams. Scotland, and whoever is playing England."
