Three Canadian's, and a Scot (who will serve as our uncompensated tour guide) are heading to the 2010 British Open at the birth place of golf, St. Andrews, Scotland. Yes, I am freaking excited!

We purchased full passes to the event for £200 and will be buying flights before the end of the month.

Just wanted to know if any other CP'ers will be making the trip, or maybe made it in the past? I remember seeing a couple of Flames jerseys last year during the coverage on championship Sunday.

Also, any advice from people that have been through Scotland besides the obvious awesome weather? Accommodation is taken care of but besides that we are open to anything. Sights to see? Favorite watering holes? Golf courses? Food? etc. We hope to play at least one round of golf in Scotland, and will be meeting some friends in Wales for a round (golf and beer).

Thanks, and maybe we'll see you there. Look for two Flames jerseys, a Sens jersey and a Red Wings jersey on Sunday!

Go Tiger!!!
