Glasgow; Friday, 25 October, 2002

With a gentle drizzle in the sky I set out for the second day with the knowledge this morning that the sightseeing buses actually stop outside the hotel and I don't need to go into town to pick it up.

Went through to the other side of the city to visit the Kelvinhall museum and art gallery.

This is a large collection on a range of subjects, Archaeology, Natural History and art that has been granted to the city. The building itself is impressive and only slightly dwarfed by the structure of the university that faces it across the river.

Across the road from the museum is the Glasgow museum of transport that charts the changes in transport across Glasgow through the 20th century including a small display to the Locherby disaster.

After that back onto the tour bus and over to the other side of the city to the Providends Lordship, the oldest building in the city. The display inside gives some insight into the history of the city and the relationship of the building to the neighboring cathedral.
