This week, I fly out for the first time in my life to America, for my first holiday in six years (and also my first flight, which I'm more than a little nervous about!). But I'm seriously looking forward to a holiday, and visiting part of a huge country I've never seen before in my life. :)



My girlfriend is from PA (goes to university in St Andrews where I met her), so she is going to be showing me the sights, including a trip to Washington DC for the weekend!



Can't wait!! :bounce



(Also, I haven't seen my gf for two months, so I cant wait to see her again too! :bounce )
 
Don't be nervous about your flight...this is not very long flight between US and UK! And get some beer or liquor while you on board.....you will feel better! Or bring interesting book with you.
 
I'll think about you when in DC. I am about 15 minutes from it.



Have a wonderful time. If you want any detail supply that I may have, it is yours.

I was born in Dundee Scotland but was too young to remember it! One day I will be over to visit and check it out

Welcome the USA Dave. :usa



What part of Pa are you coming to?
Click to expand...



I'm coming to Coopersburg. But will be travelling across much of PA... The sheer size of the country amazes me, I'm used to being able to drive from coast to coast in just a couple of hours in Scotland!
 
wow very cool!! Have a great time. Gonna be doing any detailing here in the states?

You just gotta throw down that UK shine here in the states!!!!!
 
Enjoy your visit to the colonies!



Can’t offer any suggestions on stuff to do in PA (I’ve driven around Scotland more than the east coast of the US) but I’ve no doubt you’re in good hands and will have a great time.



If you’re into reading travel tips, here’s a site by a guy in the UK who does a great job describing travel over here for somebody coming from over there.

wow... congrats, i hope you enjoy your stay, east coast is very different from the west coast. You'd probably feel more at home at the east coast. come to california when you have time.
 
Hope you have a nice time in the USA. Just don't complain to your friends/family about the "weird English accent" that the Americans have when you return to Scotland! ;)



:welcome :usa
 
Have fun Dave! I'm from Belgium myself, born and raised all over Western Europe. When my father took a job in Texas when I was 17, I was hooked. Been here ever since, and I just turned 27 two days ago.



America is an amazing country!
 
Enjoy your visit and, like artikxscout said, visit the west coast when you get a chance. Also, Boston is an awesome city as well if you are close. I have never been to NYC, so I can't vouch for that, but I think is self-explanatory. Maybe you'll like it enough to move here with the GF.....
 
I hope you have a good time here! PA can get pretty boring, but being that youve never been there... theres alot to see that probably does not exist or just doesnt happen in Scotland... im not sure where coopersburg is, im assuming in the western part of the state... and DC... is awesome... so many cool/interesting things, be sure to take pictures and what not!
 
You can't visit PA and not make a the short haul to NY!!!!



Have a great time in the states! The best part about your trip is that everything here will seem ridiculously cheap!



If you come to NY, don't believe the hype that good pizza and bagels are everywhere! You have to be in the know to find teh really good places. Too many hackers came in and killed both businesses. Of course, there is plaenty to see and do in NY so bring your walking shoes!
