First of all, I bought a guitar!!! I got a Brunswick 12-string. It's got a very bright timbre and it was a lot of guitar for the money. And since I'm already out of my comfort zone here, I did a little haggling too and got a small discount. I was proud of myself.
This is the place where I found the guitar - Mev Taylor's Music - it was a nice little shop - the owner helped me find exactly what I was looking for.
I got to see the Edinburgh Castle from a different angle on the way to the guitar shop. It's easy to see how this thing would be pretty much impenetrable back in the 15-16 century. The rock facade is beautiful, partially covered in moss. In contrast, the cannons point in every direction - really cool. I can't wait for friends/family to get here so I can give my world-famous (to Pat & Ursula) fake-tour of the castle. There's no factual information on my tour, but if you miss the real tour, and you have a plane to catch - it's the best you can get!
In other news, my dryer is still on a rampage... This time, it only burnt a few of my shirts, but the rest came out so wrinkly that after 15-minutes of ironing, they're still bad. Does that even look like a shirt?!?!
