Oh that's so fun! I'll be ready to hear all about it - esp now that I'm slightly more familiar with the area.

Congratulations to Cope, and what an amazing and literary trip! I’ve never been to the Lake District or Edinburgh—eager to go.

It's beautiful, complete with bagpipe playing on the cobblestone streets! My husband *almost* bought a tartan clan kilt...

Oh my goodness, I am utterly brimming with envy, both at this trip and at Cope's experience. How absolutely incredible! Can I turn back time and do my college in London? Also I just finished the show Hamish Macbeth, staring Robert Carlyle and set in the Scottish highlands, so that doesn't help the jealousy ;)

I know, I want to go to school there. Her friend just finished a Master's in Children's Illustration - so cool! Hamish Macbeth is something I will check out!
