Before describing the day let's add a picture of our current venue so it becomes the main picture for the post (although I think many of the others are better)
Right, back to the day. First port of call was Sanquhar for the museum, particularly the Sanquhar knitting patterns history. Ah, not a good start, the museum doesn't open on a Monday. Still the community shop sells Liz a couple more pattern books, including one for a hat. Hopefully a hat for me. Still we did find this curio.
The route now takes us through Glasgow and under the Clyde Tunnel. Despite some extremely tricky navigation it was actually fast flowing traffic all the way. God, did I get daggers looks for a lady who I forced allow me into the correct lane after I'd dare get one junction wrong! Sometimes road signs are not all bad news, the one saying "You are now leaving Glasgow" being one!
On to the village of Drymen to pick up some veg from the local Spar shop. It's on the West Highland trail and very popular with mountain bikers. Note the charging points for electric bikes
Eventually we end up at the Loch Lomond campsite and immediately bumped into one of our friends who had left Moffat yesterday. We knew she was heading this way but not necessarily to the same site, so that was nice.
As is Loch Lomond
Despite Glasgow driving wasn't too bad today
