Friday, August 2nd
Glasgow bus tour

After breakfast, we decided to take a hop-on hop-off bus tour. The bus does a loop of 22 stops, and you can hop off and hop back on at any time. Busses come every 10 minutes, so it's pretty convenient. We walked over to the Kelvingrove Art Gallery to catch our first bus.

After a few stops, we got off the bus at the Glasgow Cathedral. After perusing the cathedral, we picked up sandwiches from the nearby High Street Sandwich Co. We ate at a nearby park, then hopped back onto the bus.

Our next stop was the St. Enoch Shopping Centre. We didn't spend much time here. It was a typical mall, not very different from American malls, so we left fairly quickly. Outside on the street, we saw lots of smokers and vapers as we had on Dumbarton Road. So we quickly got back onto the next bus.

From there, we stayed on the bus as it traveled past the Glasgow Science Centre, the Riverside Museum, and then past Glasgow University, after which we got off. After the tour, we walked back to our rental house.
