View Full Version : Falls of Shin
Today we went out for the day (myself, Mum, Auntie, Uncle & sister) to the Falls of Shin, about an hour and 15 minutes drive south of where we live. It's basically a big waterfall, very impressive, and salmon leap through the falls (although we didn't see any!). There's also lots of forest walkes/nature trails. So we spent a couple of hours there. Here's the website: http://www.fallsofshin.co.uk/index.php (http://www.fallsofshin.co.uk/index.php)
And here's my pics...first view...

And here they are. It's not really that big, but it seems very powerful

A sign I liked on the walk - just phrased nicely!

In the gift shop, I bought an Agate bracelet, which you could buy charms for, so I got my initials and a dolphin.

And just before we got in the car, these two little Yorkies were in their car, this little guy was watching us with his tongue sticking out, he just looked so funny! Very cute!

That's all!
Thanks Sarah, some good pics. I like the one of your sister on the track.
Nice pics Sarah thanks for sharing, I see there is a new car park, it looks a lot better!
Love the bracelet!
Sophie has such beautiful red hair! :)

There are loads of leaping salmon when the spring run is on. Worth a look back then.
