Glasgow 28 Sept

Our one full day in Glasgow.

We Walked up to the St.Mungo Cathedral (magnificent, unbelievable) and the accompanying St. Mungo Museum of Religion and Art. Saw the Necropolis where all the important Glawegians are buried. We then got on a tour bus that you could get on and off and comes along every half hour (a great way to see things when you only have a day). Saw all the majhor sites.

Took a cab to 3 addresses in North Glasgow where Meg's grandmother used to live. Residences no longer exist there. Shopped a little and went for a great Italian dinner. The Scots maitre d' noted that we were Canadians and that Canadians have something in common with the Scots - poor southern neighbours.

All packed for the flight to Paris tomorrow.
