alright, anthon and i are in the process (yes right this very moment) of purchasing our airline tickets. we are flying into london on March 11th and coming home on March 21st. a few of the things that we want to do while we are there are: (not in any particular order)

-hike the highest point in the UK, Ben Nevis in Scotland (you game Roz?)
-visit the orphangage that anthon's mum grew up in in Leighton Buzzard
-visit the couple that his mum lived with in Bedford
-spend St. Patrick's Day in a cool little town in Ireland (any suggestions?)
-visit Briley (Beergal) in liverpool

any other suggestions of things we might want to do while we are there? although we both like doing some city stuff, we are way more interested in cool outdoor type of stuff.

what would the best way to get around? euro-rail i suspect. although i've been on this site for so long, the fact that i've never really been planning a trip for myself has stopped me from soaking in too much information. we are pretty sure of our particular destinations and time of travel. would it be cheaper to buy ticket by ticket or just get a pass for 2 adults for 10 days?

well, i'm sure i'll have more questions in the next couple months. as always, thanks for the help travelpunks! i'm finally crossing the drink!!
