Had a great afternoon with Neil in Glasgow!

Had a great afternoon in Glasgow… Well once, we found somewhere to park! Ended up driving around a lot… Then Neil was like, let’s park at Old Glasgow Transport Museum. Which worked out well. Plus just a short walk to the Kelvinhall subway station.

Oh and yes, Glasgow has a underground light metro system. Which opened on 14 December 1896, it is the fourth-oldest underground rail transit system in Europe after the London Underground, Liverpool’s Mersey Railway and the Budapest Metro.

Right back to afternoon in Glasgow. We just spend most of afternoon walking around. Doing lots of window shopping. But Neil, did get stuff in HMV. I had to stop myself, from getting stuff in the Lego Store.

We also went to The Crystal Palace, to get food! Yes, it’s a Wetherspoons!

I also had fun on the Glasgow Subway

I also had fun on the Glasgow Subway. One of the best things, travelling with Nick, is you never know, what photos he’s going to take! Love seeing that amazing photos, he’s taken!

Also think he’s starting to get use to, travelling with me! Since, I like to always try and do has many things, that I can in a day! Not spend the whole time he’s pubs! We only went to one, during the whole time in Scotland and that was just to eat!

Video : Glasgow Underground 1975

I am so more of you will find this video very boring. But since I grow up in Glasgow and I love this sort of stuff. It’s a look at the Glasgow Underground. 17th February 1975.

I am sure many of you, will not even know that Glasgow got a underground system. It’s also the third-oldest underground system in the world after the London Underground and the Athens Metro.
