Check out this program:

id-design, inc. | WhatSize

It will tell you exactly what is taking up space and makes it easy to find the files.

It's a free trial. There are others as well, but they don't give you nearly the same kind of useful information. Here's another that's free: Disk Inventory X

Have you deleted the virtual machines also, besides just the parallels program? The VM's are pretty large!

Liquid and computers don't mix. It might seem simple, but we see an incredible amount of people post here about spills. Keep drinks and other liquids away from your expensive electronics!
