This was a long day! It's past 11 here now which means we have been up since yesterday morning with two pretty good naps. One on the flight and one in our hotel, the Citizen M here in Glasgow. ever heard of this place? It's a strange and uberhip concept. Half of the room is a huge bed.The room changes colors, no kidding. Everything is built in and controlled by a master computer that 'knows' you. Except the room did NOT know us and even thou we told it we wanted coolth for a nap, it stayed stuffy. Much later, a service technician said,"ooo I wish he'd spoke up sooner." but actually we hadn't suffered. we had taken a nap and a walk. And it seems like everyone here is so friendly and cheery. I guess they are used to the drizzle like us in Maine, haha. One young man gave me 20p because I didn't have the proper change for the loo!
8 am arrive at Glasgow, and took easy shuttle bus to downtown.
9 am arrive at Citizen M, crash for nap
1 pm go out for walk.sd got sim card for iPad and a great recommendation
For the oldest pub in Glasgow: Sloans.
I had grilled haloumi with sweet potatoes and chickpeas and aubergine pickle (chutney) and Drew had chicken. Mmmm.
later we went on a walking tour of the historic and architectural highlights.
SUCH a long day!
Goals for tomorrow morning: get photo input thing for iPad (any recommendations other than the adaptor sold at apple store?) (because i really want to post some pix along the way) and convert some more dollars to pounds before catching the train to Fort William.
