Kelpies

Hi all,
I don't have a card to share this time but I just wanted to share a photo of these!
Meet the Kelpies


We have often passed these beautiful steel sculptures between Grangemouth & Falkirk,
which you can see from the motorway. Today we decided to get a closer look.
The are magnificent!
A word of warning if you do go to visit, the visitor centre is not built yet.
There are protakabins for the office, where you can buy tour tickets & a few items of
memorabelia. The toilets are also portakabins but are adequate.
The only food & drink available is from a glorified burger van.
I would recommend taking a picnic if you do visit as it was expensive & the 
quality wasn't up to much.
There is lots of parking around & if you have any youngsters with you, 
The Helix Park is well worth a visit lots to see & do.

  4. I've seen photographs of these before Dawn but I never realised quite how big they are. They look amazing - it's a shame they are so far away from where I live!
