Shopped, Loched, and Barreled

UntitledSunday morning in Glasgow was washing day for the two tired travelers, a quiet morning at Margaret's. By noon we were out the door to Balloch on the south shore of Loch Lomond. A new shopping district anchored by an aquarium sits on the loch offering views of Ben Lomond. Today there was an open air market of local artisans selling craft and food stuffs. We picked up a rhubarb crumble and a beer that seemed to be crafted just for us "West Highland Way" from the Loch Lomond Brewery. The owner was very personable and we walked away with three bees for our dinner. In the square a pipe and drum group entertained the crowd.
Back at Glasgow we watched Andy Murray win the Queens Cup on telly and ate and drank our new bought treasures. Latter Mari was teased with first episode of "The White Queen" on BBC 1. We will have to wait months to see the rest at home.
