Glasgow in Pictures

Glasgow was gorgeous. Some fellow graduate students piled into a West End apartment, where we had a conference. We didn't expect much. Isn't Glasgow an industrialist waste land?

Not really. There were lovely parks...

....a tremendous university campus, medieval, and rebuilt in the Victorian period.


And unbelievable museums. In this one (the Kelvingrove), there is an organ concert every day at 1 pm. It may begin seriously, but it winds up playing soundtracks for Indiana Jones, Star Wars, etc.


The city was full of beautiful surprises....


 ...and the tiny ones were best of all.
