In March of 2018 I visited the Kelpies in Scotland. Back then Covid restrictions were an unknown thing of the future. Hopefully when this awful virus has passed and the world returns to some sort of normality people will once again be able to explore locally, nationally or internationally and rediscover or discover the many many wonderful things in the world that we once took for granted. The recent announcement of a potential vaccine will help.
'The Helix Park is The Home of the Kelpies - the largest equine sculptures in the world. Located between Falkirk and Grangemouth, it was created as a space for the communities in the Falkirk area to come together. The Kelpies go a step further in bringing together not only people from different parts of Scotland and the UK, but from all over the world.
Standing at 100ft tall and weighing more than 300 tonnes each, the magical Kelpies are a man-made wonder and a feat of engineering. The works of art, created by artist Andy Scott.'

They are located just under 80 miles northwest of the village. Approx. 2 hours away by car.
