River Tummel

The weather was lovely in the morning and I spent it in Pitlochry, walking do the River Tummel and viewing the Dam and Salmon Ladder.  The dam is part of the Tummel hydro-electric power scheme, which is an interconnected network of dams, power stations, aqueducts and electric power transmission.  I took the photo of the river Tummel form the dam.  In my final afternoon, after all the sunny weather, it started drizzling.  I had lunch in Dunkeld and had a look around Blairgowrie, which I found disappointing.
