We were scheduled for one night in Glasgow, but a tardy taxi driver turned one night into two. Tip: Always be willing to segue seamlessly to Plan B...
Glasgow, population 580,000 - Scotland's largest city, and the UK's largest retail center after London. Birthplace of Charles Rennie Macintosh (June 7, 1868 – December 10, 1928), Scottish architect, designer, watercolourist and sculptor. Macintosh was a designer in the Arts and Crafts movement and also the main exponent of Art Nouveau in the United Kingdom; he had a considerable influence on European design.
Even the abandoned buildings are lovely...
We were also quite close to the city center, shops, and The Willow Tea Room, designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh in 1904, where we stopped for tea and scones.
Yes - tea and scones. Sweet, milky, buttery, creamy heaven.
Next stop: Stornoway!
Next stop: Stornoway!
Be infinitely flexible and constantly amazed.
