Scotland

Lock Lomond - North of Glasgow a great place to spend an afternoon. Our weather is cloudy, sunny, & rain. Welcome to Scotland.

Visiting the Kelvingrove Museum in Glasgow, we were treated to an Organ recital.


Outside the museum, Lauren shows off her new violin which Grandma has just purchased. The lessons commence next month.
Across the road is the Transportation Museum with the oldest known bicycle. Most of the museums are "hands on" and so much fun for kids.

The Edward Munch Prints were in the Huntterian Art Gallery at the Glasgow University. The Scream,1895 is the most popular although Lauren didn't fancy it.

A trip to Aberdeen via St. Andrew's Golf Course was wonderful. Scotland's countryside is so lush and the heather was starting to bloom. A wee visit to Aunt Hilda's castle with Lauren ( Castle Fraser) was a great start to the day as we headed into Aberdeen to spend a gorgeous day at the seaside.
