Journey to Milngavie
We caught the 10.29am train from Preston to Glasgow and arrived at 1.14pm. As we had time to
spare we decided to explore a little of Glasgow before continuing to Milngavie. Sauchiehall Street
sported a number of artists - painting on canvas taped to the pavement! We
admired the red sandstone buildings of the past and had a quick trip to the
river before returning to the station. Having just missed a train we had half an
hour to wait for the next one - Marie made good use of the time - making a cup of coffee!
