Glasgow Central Station

The path I walked took me to the Central Station. Walked in and around sometime enjoying one of the magnificent infrastructure of Scotland. 

This is a major mainline terminus and the larger of the two present main-line railway terminals in Glasgow.With over 27 million passenger entries and exits between March 2013 and April 2014, Glasgow Central is the tenth-busiest railway station in Britain.

It is the terminus for all inter-city services between Glasgow and destinations in England. Something of my interest for sure.

According to Network Rail, over 38 million people use it annually, 80% of whom are passengers. The station is protected as a category A listed building (Category A: "buildings of national or international importance, either architectural or historic, or fine little-altered examples of some particular period, style or building type.").

Could find some pretty interesting facts about the station in the below footage.

Spent some around, a small shopping at the Tesco Express and headed back home for lunch.

The First Scottish Weekend

Got up by 8 in the morning listening to the unusual noise from the street. There were too many people out enjoying their stroll and laughing around. On the top of it, some seagulls which went really crazy flying around making weird noise.

Took a Skype call with my dears and Ikey was smiling and laughing at my Twinkle song. Missing them. Spent few minutes reading the bible and the topic I got to read - The Year of Favor!

Whats for the breakfast? There was a packet of pasta which I bought the other day during the shopping walk. Not because I like it. But it was one thing that I could eat and kind of inexpensive :) 

Boiling and getting ready.

It wasn't tough to cook. Only 10 minutes and it was ready to eat

Sauce was kind of meat based. And it tasted well with the pasta.

Ate it in coupe of minutes and got ready to hit the street.

The Architectural Elegance

Clicking the photos around while on a walk is my favorite. That happens when I am on a vacation and gives Ani a tough time making her posing almost everywhere on the way. But she is sweet enough to do whatever I say. Glad that I got a prefect partner who cares to the extreme :)

These are the structures that I walk by for couple of days now. Initially this was a sheer amazement for me. Each and every building around is a masterpiece.  There will be something special for every building. Unlike a plain kind of design, all got a royal art touch. 90% of the buildings carry this taste and it makes the city so beautiful.

Uphill climb. Kind of San-Francisco touch

See the brick styles. So massive

So authentic in look and feel

It was 5:30 in the evening. Might be that it is Friday. Not much people were around. 

As I mentioned earlier, this is the second art form that I witnessed on the way to office. Looking nice.

By the way, I haven't seen even the 1% if the city yet.

The Street Arts

Noticed this on the way to office. There are several ones on the way. Beautifully crafted city.

A Different Morning

Got up at 5 in the morning and simply gazed through the window and enjoyed the drizzle. Took a walk through the street at 7 sipping a hot coffee. 12 degree made the walk short.

The city is just waking up

Hot coffee made some sense finally.

The streets are so empty in the morning
