Lossiemouth 2011

Annual trip to Silver Sands, Covesea, Lossie, relaxed beach and cliff top runs every couple of days, took in the local sights, Shells, Jellyfish, Sea Potato Test complete with occupant and fur! Not so many jets this year but some tight turns and night flights helped to compensate. Managed a few swims in the Moray Firth as well. A couple of games of Golf, 18 holes at Hopeman and 27 hoels at the re-opened Covesea 9 hole links course at the end of the beach. Camp site still in administration it would be a shame if it closes as there are few other sites with the location, space and easy going approach.

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.
