Everyone had a large buffet breakfast at the Premiere Inn we are staying at in Glasgow. It was a sunny morning, almost warm enough to take our jackets off as we walked around the central city, which like European cities has a large mall where cars can't drive.
Rain, however, descended again as we were loading into the buses to go to our last concert which was in the University of Glasgow Chapel. The university was founded in 1451, the fourth oldest university in the English speaking world. The beautiful old buildings including the chapel were built in the early 1800's. There are 15,000 students and 6,000 professors, making it a major business in Glasgow.
Kind of mixed emotions. Such great music, wonderful and talented kids and amazing experience. . . sad it's the last concert, but also looking forward to being home again. We visit Edinburgh tomorrow, a medieval and modern city (modern by European standards is 1800s). Only an hour away, we will eat an early breakfast and be there by 11 am.
