Glasgow was a fun place to go see. I was expecting more modern buildings but there is still a lot of old, stone architecture there and much worth going for a visit. The main purpose of taking time away from Edinburgh was to visit the National Piping Centre. We toured the museum and watched a great video about piping. Since Michael played pipes in band during high school and has begun relearning, this was very interesting for us. While at the centre, we found out about a place to get a quality hand made kilt a short ways away. We went there and it was an amazing experience. This is a one man shop and the gentleman who helped us personally makes the kilts. He spent a lot of time chatting about what to consider when selecting all the qualities you want in your kilt and helped us narrow down what tartan would be best for Michael. I love the grey tweed coat that will go with the kilt, too! I went to the same high school as Michael, but 4 years later, so never got to see Michael in a kilt in person. It was a special moment to see him in one for myself. t was so nice to see that each person who entered the shop was clearly remembered in detail, no need to look anything up. He knew what they had ordered, which events they were for, what pieces they were adding on and why. By the time you leave his shop, you feel like a small town friend & customer for life. 2 hours later, we were on our way to find lunch and await delivery of the kilt at home in mid-November. Lunch was some very good BBQ (pulled pork with caramelized apple and a rack of ribs). I am not sure why I was skeptical about BBQ in Scotland, but no more!
