Monday Morning, September 26

We wanted to see a bit more of Glasgow before heading to Oban. Our first stop was the University of Glasgow, which was about a 15 minute walk from the hotel.

The architecture is beautiful. As with the Botanical Gardens, we could have easily spent an entire day wandering around the campus but sadly we only had an hour to look around.

The cloisters were really neat to see & walk through. We also took a quick tour of the chapel and, as it turned out, we were just in time to attend a brief ecumenical service. Even with the service being only about 15 minutes’ duration, it was very moving for us, with Catherine & I each thinking of our fathers.

Our last stop on our walking tour of the city was for a photo op at the “Dr Who” Police Box on the street corner across from the hotel. I knocked on the door but there was no answer- sadly, the Dr. was not in.

Time to set out for Oban!
