Canals and waterways
High and Mighty
Corpach Basin, at the Western end of the Caledonian Canal. The lock gates in the distance mark the start of what is Scotland's longest canal. Ben Nevis, Britain's highest mountain, can be seen in the background on the right, and snow is still visible at the top.

The River Tweed at Berwick
Below the Cross

Boats and Bicycles HFF! Happy Fence Friday!
Crinan Basin and these bicycles were seemingly just left carelessly beside the water...or did they jump in or jump aboard a boat..? I have added Van Halen's 'Jump' as a link

Model Kelpies at the Falkirk Wheel
I have added 'Kelpie' by Jethro Tull. I hasten to add that the link was kindly sent to me by Boarischa so not my idea. My thanks Boarischa both for the link and introducing me to this song. I am really pleased and appreciate it.

Part of the Royal Border Bridge spanning the Tweed between Berwick on Tweed and Tweedmouth. Built between 1847 and 1850 and designed by Robert Stephenson, the bridge is 659 metres long and boasts 28 arches. It is part of the East Coast Main Line, which was electrified in 1989.
My link is 'Borderline' by Madonna
