The view from the dunes

Well my crossed fingers last night must have worked! The morning proved to be sunny and dry, which made our walk through the country park at Balmedie a very pleasant one. We walked through the grounds of the nursing home to the beach via the dunes and a certain infamous golf course. Lunch on the beach was eaten while perched on the old World War II defences, then we sauntered back along the beach to the village by another path. In all, about 5 and a half miles, 12000 or so steps and nearly 600 calories of effort! I've missed my walks and the company of the walkers. It was good to be back.
