Lossiemouth Aug 09

Annual holiday in Lossie at Silver Sands, yes the one in the news with the scam Caravan Sales. The Site was the busiest we had seen it in the last 10 years. Weather good as it always is in the magic circle...forecast rain, showers etc, actual sun, sun, sun.

Ran every couple of days, 2 hour clifftop run to Hopeman and back was the longest, a couple of easy 5 mile beach runs and 3 hill rep runs, all finished with a swim in the sea.

There were 14 of us.....


As well as shopping in Tesco, Chinese Buffets and watching the jets we partook in all the usual Lossie activities;

Watching the sunset....


The Beach.....about 3 or 4 miles long with a nice wee track up a hill at the end to take you onto the clifftops and the Moray Coastal Trail, perfect for hill reps.


Andrews 15th birthday....poor wee lamb, 9 out of his last 10 birthdays have been in a tent at Lossie


Golf, a round at nearby Hopeman, a links course where we saw former Open Champ Paul Lawrie playing in an exhibition match, Andrew is teeing off at the par 3 12th, "Prieshach"....


Duffus Castle....


Who will be back next year, will they let us in, these and other interesting questions may be answered when we feel like it.
