Walking around Glasgow #2

Next up for my walking around Glasgow were visits to the Riverside Museum and the Tall Ship "Glenlee".

The museum has a wide range of ground and sea transport, including cars, trains, trams and ships, and a mocked up Glasgow street from days gone by. On the street, all the "shops" can be entered, including the subway terminal. There are also displays about some older technology [that is, 20-30 years ago]. What's better, it was free entry [after an easy 40 minute walk from the hotel].

The ship has been restored and all decks are open. I see they do school visits, so probably better to avoid that day :-), but also appear set up and able to cater for events/ parties.

Pictures are from around the museum, then the Glenlee and one of a water taxi service. These attractions are right next to each other, and are well worth the visit if you're in Glasgow!
