  • In this adventure I check out The Kelpies, two 30 metre high horse sculptures located at Helix Park in Falkirk, Scotland! These impressive structures opened in 2013 and were designed by Andy Scott as part of the extension of the Forth and Clyde Canal. Built of structural steel with a stainless steel cladding, The Kelpies are 30 metres high and weigh 300 tonnes each!

    So beautiful and graceful! This is why I LOVE channels like this. I get to see the world from my laptop! I can't leave my apartment because my wheelchair won't go through the narrow door....AND there is no ramp for my chair to go down the 8 steps to the door outside.... so Shawn, thank you for taking me out into the world, and seeing things I have never seen, or always wanted to see. I truly appreciate you!

    If you are still In Scotland or coming back there is a place called The Devils Pulpit, it’s a massive ditch in the middle of a Forrest with a river going through the middle of it. It’s absolutely stunning

    We visited these yesterday along with the Falkirk wheel. We are homeward bound now after a week travelling the NC500. We passed Ben Nevis last Friday travelling up and stopping at Fort William. Amazing scenery. A truly fantastic trip.

    You have blown me away with Kelpies. It is such an enchanting sculpture. The horses look alive. Must credit it to the sculptor.
    Your photography and enthusiasm is awsome.

    Loving the Scottish tour... if you are still in Scotland keep an eye out for the northern lights, the activity in Scotland the last few days has been pretty good and the further north you go, the better chance you have of seeing them...

    Yes Exactly where I’ve been and ofc Born in Scotland, Edinburgh 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 And it’s there for mostly a reason about mostly a water horse that shape shifts into a let’s say a human or any specific thing that the horse tries to trick you into coming near it and trying to drown you if you touch their sticky body it’s horrible i know it’s just how it mostly is or how the legend is which ofc I felt it was very mean but ofc it’s a legend and exactly ofc not real mostly but ofc idk most about why they did this but I feel this was why so that’s a little story from me to whoever reads this

    It's cost about 25 to 30 pounds just to get inside them to climb up and down and that's it a lot of money for Fuck all so two adults to go up and down 50 to 60 pounds no way not worth it better going back to Edinburgh Castle mate or Stirling Castle
