A “locked down” city…

Well, our walk today made us kind of sad as we find ourselves back in lockdown yet again.

During the first lockdown the weather was mostly good, the Spring flowers were coming out, the days were getting longer and we got to explore places we may not have bothered with otherwise.

As we enter another lockdown in winter, it’s harder to stay upbeat, especially now that the colours of Autumn have all but passed. The leaves have pretty much all dropped and the weather has been pretty wet of late. However, we are hoping for some nice crisp winter days with maybe some heavy frost or a covering of snow to cheer us up.

Today we took one of our “usual” walks along the Kelvin Walkway to Kelvingrove Park. We diverted via a deserted Ashton Lane, in the heart of the west end, normally jumping at weekends (well, most days of the week to be honest). Today we took this tragically beautiful photo of the bars, restaurants and cafes all locked and boarded up…

We continued on to the cloisters of Glasgow University, which lifted us a little, as they were covered in fairy lights, ready for Christmas.

It’s getting pretty difficult to find any travel related things to blog about, so next week we shall probably work on adding some more pages to our “Around Glasgow” menu, so watch out for those.

Keep well everyone xx
