We caught a bus along the Clyde to the new Riverside Museum of Transport. It was awarded the European Museum of the year 2013. Very quickly we realised why. It was full of interesting things to see, read about, experience, from baby prams to giant locomotives.
Then we went by subway to the eastern side of Glasgow and walked to the Peoples Palace , a museum of Glasgow life in the poor East End over the past 100 years or so. We did not have enough time. We went , via our hotel, to the West End of Glasgow where we visited Noels daughter and her partner in their lovely terrace apartment. After afternoon tea we walked through the Glasgow uni campus to a nice restaurant for dinner, then we went to a nearby church for a performance of Puccini's one act opera Gianni Schicchi. Very enjoyable.
