4/7/02 Sunny Glasgow, Scotland (Phillip)
Flic and I caught the early morning plane to Glasgow from Paris this morning. Poor ben (my brother in law) must have been glad to get rid of us! Anyway, got here and was met by my favorite uncle: Gordon. And guess what? it wasn't raining! We took Flic to her friend Collette's house and Uncle G immediately dragged me to the rowing club. My family is amazing, I'm pretty sure uncle's G's first words to me were: "Have you got your rowing kit?".
We went out for what turned out to be a brilliant row, my hands are still bleeding! For an old guy he sure pulls hard. After that we momentarily stopped at his house for lunch and to see my lovely aunt noreen. Then off to the hills for a walk in the green scenery. I got to seek advice from the wise old guy about my future, girls, my travels etc... He always gives great advice.
We stopped off in a georgous town called Luss. There were quite a few tourist buses and I absolutely understand why. Luss is situated in a valley surrounded by the best of Scotlands scenerey, looking out towards Ben Lomond and next to Loch Lomond. We had some amazing soup and I got some Irn-bru (Scotlands national drunk behind whiskey).
Great day! Meeting Chas (brother) and Flic tomorrow.
