No air bases in Scotland? Outrageous.
Maybe you'll be stationed at my brother's old base, Mildenhall. He used to have a cool condo in Cambridge, with a liittle garden and everything. Great for roaming Wolves.
I remember riding little commuter buses to Edinburgh. Scotland 
Machy, I was in Valencia for the Louis Vuitton Cup races in October. We watched from the fabled "Christina O," where Onassis married Jackie Kennedy and Grace Kelly married Prince Ranier. I had paella on the beach in Heminway's hangout, La Pepita, but it was only so-so. The new science and oceanography park is astounding. When they finish it. it will be as cool as the Guggenheim Bilbao. |

In Spain... Espanyol and Barcelona...
but Valencia is where the spanish go to vacation/party and stuff... so I figure it'd be the most fun. (I'd have to take a train and check out the culture in Madrid, Southern coast, and Northern spain near the Basque area... then spend the rest of the time partying with the spanish)

You'd get along great with my hubby then, a die-hard barca fan. We were in Camp Neu when they won the spanish league the 3rd time in a row. Now THAT was an incredible, 4-day, 4-night, horns blaring, screaming-out-the-window, girls wearing only barca bandanas and racing past on scooters PARTY.
Actually, most of the people partying in Valencia are Brits and Northern Europeans, packed like sunburned sardines on the beaches. In Madrid and Barcelona, every night is a city-wide fiesta. Dinner is 11:00, 12:00 is considered the right time to think about going out. At 4 AM, there are people out strolling Las Ramblas or the Madrid parks, hanging out, having drinks in neighborhood bars.
The basque country is less festive, but it has great cuisine and an interesting culture.
Salamanca is an awesome academic town, even if you aren't a student. Lovely architecture, fabulous food, students from all over having fun.
