Yes, I remember visiting the Scottish Fisheries Museum on that trip. My son, Eryl, was about twelve at the time and we did a camping trip from our home in Kent to visit nautical places of interest. We started off at the Pontcysyllte aqueduct on the Llangollen canal, then to the Ellesmere port collection of boats, on to the Lake District, had a row on Windermere, visited the Windermere Steamboat Museum, trip on one of their boats, Coniston for a ride on the steamboat 'Gondola'. From there to the Scottish Maritime Museum in Irvine. A look at the Union Canal. Then on to Anstruther. Stop off in Edinburgh. A look at New Berwick harbour, Whitby for the whaling museum, then home.
I called it a land cruise.
Cheers, Nerys
