    As a priest, I really would like to see Iona and some of the ancient sacred sites - not just Christian sacred either. Rosslyn is on the list.

    Edinburgh and Glasgow are beautiful, but not necessarily at the top of our lists. I really enjoyed Pitlochry and St. Andrew's when we were there and mostly I want to get off the more beaten paths and see... Scotland.
    How many years are you expecting to take doing all that Bill!?
