After following the sat navs instructions badly we eventually found it and parked up. It was a lovely sunny day.
The museum itself is massive and is spread over 3 floors, it has everything from stuffed animals to paintings and sculptures and is a great day out.
In the end we missed Glasgow entirely and spent the full afternoon at the museum. My favourite part was the live bee hive. They have a plastic tube coming from outside for them to come and go, and through the plastic you can see the working of the hive. It was quite fascinating.
I also enjoyed the stuffed animals, something I hated as a child, but now I can appreciate being able to see the animals, even if they arn't alive.
One of the museums own highlights is the Dali painting of Christ on the Cross. This was the second time we'd seen it, and we agreed it's a good painting but not our favourite Dali.
Halfway through the trip we took a pit stop at the outside cafe, a bit pricey at £3 for a few chips, but it was nice to enjoy the sun.
We were there about three and a half hours and decided to head back to avoid the traffic rather than see Glasgow.
It's tiring relaxing.
On the night time we decided to go back into Kilmarnock to eat at the Wetherspoons. The food was lovely as were the staff.
When we got back we stopped at the bar, and caught the end of the singer (better this time), and another quiz show.
