Here in Loch Lomond for family wedding at Lodge on Loch Lomond, Luss which was a fantastic day with weather to match.
Our second visit to Glenfruin Lodge which is a cosy place to come back to after sightseeing days in the area.
This visit also incorporated the ‘Scottish Referendum’. We soaked up the atmosphere in Glasgow and were relieved with the “No” result and Scotland is still part of the UK.
Hope to see you again this time next year.

The World’s first and only rotating boat lift. Completed in 2002 the huge Falkirk wheel re-connects the Fourth & Clyde and Union canals after the 11 original lock gates were dismantled in the 1930’s. Also an opportunity to visit the famous Kelpieshttps://www.scottishcanals.co.uk/falkirk-wheel/
Charles Rennie Mackintosh was a revolutionary architect and designer and The Hill House is considered to be his domestic masterpiece. Mackintosh and his wife Margaret created almost everything, from the building itself to the furniture and textiles. More examples of his work can be seen in Glasgow.https://www.nts.org.uk/visit/places/the-hill-house
The preserved buildings from the 1700s give an authentic insight into how people lived and worked in the north and west of Scotland. You can wander freely around the houses and farm buildings furnished with everyday objects from time gone by.
