Just bug everyone while you are there and ask if there is a Braveheart Tour or Highlander Tour. Then demand to see Sean Connery.

I think the Edinburgh Military Tattoo is in August. It's a MASSIVE bagpipe and military exercise thingy, and it's pretty damn cool.

There's a bar in Edinburgh that serves a Mai Tai that uses the original rum used in the 1944 Mai Tai. The rum sells for about 56,000 pounds and as I understand it the Mai Tai at the bar is about 1000 pounds.
