Day trip to Glasgow- early start!
Isn’t this an amazing Coat of Arms?
Clyde Arc, or “Squinty Bridge”
Kelvingrove Art Museum
Amazing what you can find on Wikipedia, isn’t it? Big thanks to them for all of these images. I hope to see these and much more, but I don’t know what time I’ll get back. I probably won’t be able to link to Cate at Show My Face early doors, but hope to catch up later.
Don’t forget to find six words for Saturday, will you? Have a great day!

So happy that you came home all exhausted and with sore feet … because that is what Glasgow is all about. Just a brilliant city and as you say .. so different to the regal city of Edinburgh, it has pulse and life.

Hi Jo, I was JUST reading an article about Glasgow and how it’s really coming into its own. If I can find story, I’ll send you the link. You made the right choice in hopping the train – wet or dry, it sounds fabulous. I’m glad you were able to tell us about it!

That is a very pretty coat of arms for sure, I think the prettiest one I’ve seen. They’re usually more masculine, this one is lovely! I am late getting here.. so I, too, will wish you a wonderful time!!

Brilliant day, Cathy 🙂 Bit soggy, but that’s ok- I’m used! 4 and a half hours each way, on the coach. Car would be quicker but this way I didn’t inconvenience anyone but me 🙂 Really needed much more time as we were only there 4 and a half hours. Spending today catching up on chores then it’ll be ‘Monday walk’ time 🙂 Have a great day! You’ll be out walking? I’ll catch yours later. The ironing beckons. 😦

It looks like it was a lovely day, Jo. Yesterday it poured rain here all day, so I didn’t get out for my walk. But I hope today will be nicer and I can get out. I’ll post a short one about a walk I took on Sunday though. Have fun with your ironing!! 🙂

Have a lovely time, Jo! I’m planning our trip to Scotland in August; we’re thinking about skipping Glasgow and only visit Edinburgh on the way to the Highlands. Maybe this is a mistake, you make think now… 🙂
