Gentle walking on Friday in & around Dunstaffnage Castle near Oban - pretty green woodland around it, sloping down to the sea.
And more gentle walking on Saturday. We packed up & left Appin by 10 & stopped off at the Burrell Collection in Glasgow. I've been wanting to revisit ever since I was 19 & had a very fleeting glimpse of the Collection en route to a Biology field trip near Loch Lomond. It didn't disappoint - eclectic, extensive & beautiful items including Tang dynasty pottery, egyptian artefacts, greek sculture, gothic art, Uzbek embroidery, medieval tapestries, french impressionist paintings, furniture, Florentine renaissance art..... all set in a building with floor to ceiling glass walls, giving a backdrop of parkland to many pieces.
