Due to the fact that I didn't play my save until about half ten this morning, I got to play twice today.
In terms of game play, not much happened. On turn 7 I finished my warrior and started on a worker. This is kind of putting me behind the curve at the moment, but I think the extra worker is worth it.
In terms of scouting, I've found a few decent cities in the relevantly near north east, so unless I find something better to the west, my first settler goes that way. I decided to turn back my scout, because where he was (about eleven tiles due south of my capital is a hilly and mountainy waste, and getting a fuller scout of my east is more valuable for the moment. My newly built warrior will do a very quick swing around the outskirts of my capital before settling as MP there.

And demographics:
I know I haven't talked much about what I want to do, but that's mainly because my plan for the moment is fairly simple, scout enough land to build a good core of at least 5-6 cities, tech to bronze and philosophy for an axeman and Priests of Winter army while developing sufficient economy to maintain them. Go conquer someone while teching to Iron Working. I will probably flesh this out, eg by getting at least a few adepts to buff my army but that is basicly it.
