My cousin Donald and his wife, Frances arrived on May 24 and we toured southern Scotland before heading to London for a few days. Later Pam Clinkenbeard came to visit and we also visited Glasgow. In June my sister Joan and her family will arrive and I'll travel to Glasgow again. This is a compilation of what we saw on all these trips.
During the first trip, Donald Frances and I took the tour bus around the city and visited the People's Palace, the Glasgow Cathedral and the Museum of Transport.
With Pam I visited several Mackintosh sites in Glasgow: Willow Tea Room, Mackintosh House at the Hunterian Gallery, and the Glasgow School of Art

 With Doctor Who popular again, I couldn't resist a picture of a police box outside the cathedral. |

With Donald and Frances I also visited sites in Edinburgh such as the Castle, the Royal Museum, and the Museum of Childhood. They took in the Royal Yacht Britannia. One day we spent in Stirling at the castle and the Wallace Monument.
