Day 19 - REST DAY Glasgow

Today was spent mostly relaxing in the pool/ jacuzzi for myself, being mindful to rest my knee, while Jake and Owen went into town to see the museum and get haircuts. A fairly uneventful morning and afternoon. The Rodeo was still on so we decided to head down and see what they were doing today.

Before leaving we got chatting to a Canadian man with the strongest Canadian accent we have heard yet (with Canada only 50 miles away we have run into a few on our travels). He was touring the US on his motorcycle and seemed to think we were mad doing it on our bikes. We had an interesting conversation and he kindly offered to watch our things as we went to see the fair as he was not too interested in the Rodeo. We exchanged some details and he gave me a t-shirt from his hometown as a memento.

The Rodeo was the same as last night, except the contenders appeared less skilled. We quickly grew bored and it seems once you have seen one Rodeo you have seen them all. We stayed for the Barrel Racing which seemed the most sporting competition then left for an early night, anticipating an early start tomorrow. We all felt ready to get out of Glasgow.
