Scotland Overview

I've travelled to many countries over the years and have now decided that the Scots are the nicest. I would definitely enjoy spending more time in Scotland.
Ways the Scots are cool:
*everyone you encounter verbally greets you
*the Scottish drivers are gracious and wave to other drivers a lot
*not a single Scot treated me like an outsider (even when they heard my American accent)
*it has to be a cool population that encourages something like the Edinburgh Festival (especially Fringe)
*teenage workers (gas stations, waiters...) were even polite
*I moved out of the way to allow 3 ruffian kids on bikes to careen by me and they all said "thank you" (I about passed out at that one)
*the audience all held hands and sang "Auld Lang Syne" at the Edinburgh Tatoo

I was really sorry to leave the land of the Scots and hope it's not long before I'm back.
