Another quick update!

Arrived safe and sound in Edinburgh yesterday. Had a great view of the Forth Bridge as the plane came into land, which was cool as, sadly, Edinburgh is pretty much all I'll get to do of Scotland on this visit...schedule is way too packed for anything else.

Seeing as by the time we got done with the airport and picked up the rental car, it was pushing mid afternoon, so we are doing the city centre today. Instead we found a cinema and watched X-Men: First Class. Brilliant! Okay, I knew Michael Fassbender would be great as Erik Lensherr/Magneto but he was even better than that! That man can do intensity, or what. Sure, there were some corny/stretching the suspension of disbelief moments (a hovering SR-71, wtf?), but nowhere near enough to spoil the rest. And there is a great cameo appearance in there as well!

He probably broke my heart a half dozen times in the course of the film. I'm kind of scared of trying Hex now. He was so beautiful though...

I just saw it last night!

The hovering part made me laugh too. Though, I guess, since whatshisname built it himself, maybe he just modified it so that it's able to hover? It WOULD be doable... though I didn't see any modifications that would be necessary for that...

Haven't seen it yet, but if it has your stamp of approval, Jaye, I am certain it will be wonderful! Have fun in Scotland! ;)

FASSBENDER! Yum.

I mean, he was amazing in the movie! *L* Loved the film, loved the acting. It made up for the suckiness of the 3rd X-Men film.

Glad you made it there safely!
