The Longest Beach Day

A picnic at Loch Morlich.

The hottest day ever in Aviemore!

Rudy in the sun at Loch Morlich

Rudy spent the whole day at Loch Morlich Beach next to the cool water or hiding in the shade. Hundreds of other people had the same good idea.

The temperature in the town reached 32.2° Celsius (90° Fahrenheit) which is the highest since records began. Higher up and with the large loch it was a little cooler here but far too hot to do anything but sit in the shade and watch people enjoy the water.

Even the loch itself got busy this weekend!
Early morning calm before the loch got busy.
There were quite a number of wasps around the tree line and while Rudy was hardly pestered at all a couple of our people got little stings or bites. If you visit in summer do be aware and be careful!
