A Quick Trip to Glasgow for a James Taylor Concert: WOW!

For an October Monday night concert in Glasgow, I had to panic out of my office and make a mad three hour drive to Glasgow to get to the arena in time for the concert.  I decided not to take my camera in and just enjoy the music.  I'm glad I did.  James Taylor puts on a wonderful, warmhearted concert of outstanding music.  He is just as good, if not better, than he has ever been.  His band is great and his cast of sidemen and women were worth the price of admission in their own right.  This is the iPhone photo from the night.

 

We made a quick trip to Glasgow to take in a James Taylor Concert.

 

The cocert was on a Monday night, so I had to take a 'Personal Day' off from work . . .  which meant we could take in a little shopping in Glasgow before we took the three hour drive back home to Aberdeen.

 

The old downtown shopping area has been nicely redeveloped into walking streets and these marvelous Victorian gallerias.

 

This galleria had some incredible woodwork . . .

 

. . . and a wonderful greenhouse roof. 

 

There were some fine photo opportunities in these galleries.  I LOVE this ____________ playing.

 

We took some 'B-Roads' home to check out a couple of castles we hadn't seen yet. Unfortunately we got here too late (only 15 minutes of opening time remained) to pay the 30 pounds entry fee.

 

They wouldn't even let us walk in the castle gardens!  I stole this shot over their garden wall.  So there!
