We then went to the Riverside Museum which is the revamped transport museum.

It was amazing with gigantic things to look at everywhere. In a way it was better than the London Transport Museum and the Henry Ford Museum, not to mention free compared to the other two.

There was all kinds of transport but the penny farthing was my favourite. I got a squished penny with it on.

The best part of the museum was a reconstruction of an old fashion street that you could walk down and venture inside the shops.

There was even a reconstructed Glasgow underground aka clockwork orange station.

There was lots of other things to look at aside from the transport, including the Vivienne Westwood heels that Naomi Campbell fell over in.
