Salmon ladder!

After another splendid D of E walk in the beautiful Perthshire countryside Jennifer and I decided to spend the afternoon with the pupils in Pitlochry. Coffee and cakes at Hetty's tearoom was great fun, but the highlight had to be the salmon ladder. It was amazing! We walked across the dam in lovely weather and saw three salmon going up the ladder via a tunnel. A man told me that they have come all the way from Dundee and go on from here to Loch Faskally and Loch Tummel. The salmon swim past the glass in the viewing room before disappearing up the tunnel. Brilliant!
