Our hotel was near to Falkirk, we set off grey and early to see the Falkirk Wheel. On the way there, we passed this very long row house. About 100 apartments.



Then, the wheel!

The Falkirk Wheel

The Falkirk Wheel is a rotating boat lift. A lock, effectively. Above it is the terminus of Union Canal, which leads to downtown Edinburgh. Below is midway along the Firth & Clyde Canal, which connects the Firth of Forth by Edinburgh, with the Firth of Clyde by Glasgow. The whole time I was there watching the Wheel, it never occurred to me to take any video. So here's YouTube, to show us how it works:

Then we went to Glasgow.
