We head north into Scotland stopping for lunch at the famous Gretna Green – famous for eloping couples marrying in its blacksmith shop.
Then onto Glasgow for an afternoon of free time. We visit the People’s Palace, a redeveloped glasshouse museum complex set in parkland. We also walk the city centre, stopping for a scrumptious birthday (John’s) afternoon tea at ‘Deeserts’. Dinner tonight was in the opulently decorated Corinthian Club.
Next day on to Loch Lomond and a delightful cruise on its tranquil waters.
