由爱丁堡(Edinburgh)乘车前来格拉斯哥(Glasgow),车程不过一小时,每天便有不少苏格兰人这样子穿梭往来于两者之间,生活便是这样子过。但其实爱丁堡和格拉斯哥的差异,远比它们之间的实际距离大。至少,爱丁堡人不一定全听得懂格拉斯哥人说的英语。如果你像我一样,因为爱丁堡的宁静秀丽而着迷。可能,你也会像我一样,因为格拉斯哥的活力满盈而兴致勃勃。这个城市,跟多年前比较起来,天气也许仍旧是阴晴不定的,下起雨来那种郁冷,不下于苏格兰任何一个地方,但近年来的格拉斯哥却屡屡被选为最热门的旅游城市.当地市政府亦斥巨资洗刷城中那些曾经因为工业污染而被熏得黑黑的古老建筑,令整体市容回复光亮。而这一次游格拉斯哥,幸运地,天空竟然蓝得令人眼睛也发亮,比较阴霾时节,让我们更能看清楚她的丰姿。
From Glasgow by car in Edinburgh, it takes only an hour to drive between Scots and Scotland every day. That’s how life goes. But in fact, the difference between Edinburgh and Glasgow, far greater than the actual distance between them. At least, Edinburgh people do not necessarily understand all Glasgow speak English.

The local city government also spent huge sums of money scrubbing the ancient buildings in the city that have been smothered by industrial pollution and smothering the overall cityscape. And this time Glasgow, fortunately, the sky was blue eyes even shiny, more haze season, let us better see her abundance.
