Scotland: Glasgow part 2

The Scottish Exhibition Center

After a grand entrance to the hostel in Glasgow, a nap was imposed on its expanded even before the meal we had was nicely cooked up by Maroine and Vanessa. The meal was followed by a small quiz jukebox musical with my mobile apple ... After giving the Hostel room upside down and have danced through the night, we decided with two of my buddies to brave the cold morning to see the side of port Glasgow and see some examples of modernism and the development of the city. Nobody in the streets, except a few brave athletes doing their jogging Sunday morning, or some garbage sweeping inflating bunch of garbage in the streets.
Having lost at the crossroads of narrow streets, we find path after asking a few bystanders to tell us which road to take. After borrowing a long tunnel flying over a road, we arrived opposite the Scottish Exhibition Center, architectural gem that boasts huge windows. This building has a sense of deja vu, it is believed to include the Sydney Opera House, it also placed on the edge of the water. We continue our way from the other side of the river front of the headquarters of BBC Scotland.

Just next door is the two most recent buildings such as the Glasgow Science theater or IMAX theater, two perfect examples of economic and cultural city of Glasgow .


Back then on the north bank to offer us a final view on the Tall Ship, a huge three-masted ship named Glenlee , super yacht built in 1896 the River Clyde.

The end of the morning ends with a gloomy weather. It is time for us to pack up and sail to Cork. The sun in the sky Scottish accompanies us on our departure. The weekend was charged, hiking the Scottish nights, suffers fatigue in the legs and head. But it is with a broad smile as we leave this land of legend, with a sweet perfume of overall satisfaction, and certainty for certain that Scotland still has much to offer us, we love travel and always looking for new adventures. Anyway, this weekend was the final part of a real pleasure and shared discovery. In one surprise, the two main Scottish cities have offered far more than we expected. Next phase of team-flannel flannel: the weekend in Galway.
