Vacation help! - Scotland

[Roadtrip]

I don't have specific Scottland travel advice, but I'd check phones for international use if you need service-- data charges are really expensive so if your not going to use it, make sure data roaming is turned off

Check any electronics (laptops, etc) and make sure you have proper power cord converters. The plugs/recepticals are different pin (type G) I believe and it's 220v DC, which is different then here is the US.

If you plan on renting a car, you may want to research specifically local rules/regulations on foreign divers and insurance/liability coverage customary as your own ins may not cover you overseas.

Check into medical coverage and if your current provider and plan covers you while your away, but its something to look into in the off chance something unforeseen would occur.

Check any prescription medications and make sure you make proper refills in hand before leaving. I've read it's possible something be legal med here and not so in other countries.

Never a bad idea to carry one change of clothes in your carry on incase something horrible happens and your luggage is lost, that way you can have clean clothes while you find/shop for something else.

Passports can take 4-6 weeks so prepare if you don't already have them.

That's what I'm thinking of right now... Unless you have a spare ticket to Scottland and I can become a member of the family for the Holidays
