Embleton Bay and Dunstanburgh Castle

A photo of a beach with a light covering of snow. In the foreground sand dunes grasses are lit up with sunlight. Further back white water waves make their way up the beach. On the horizon the ruins of a castle can be seen under dark moody clouds.

Awww! The castle looks a "little bit" different and the beach is a "little more" flat, or I could have "almost" mistaken it for a view at Dunnottar Castle as seen when approaching it from Stonehaven… libre.video/videos/watch/91bf4…

@IzzyOnDroid I'm quite familiar with Dunnottar Castle as we used to live just north of Stonehaven. I wanted to visit in September to get some pictures but my knee was playing up so we had to head home.

Ouch – hope the knee is better now?

I've visited Dunnottar during a stay in Aberdeen in June (Meeting of the F-Droid core team, as our founder lives near to Aberdeen), together with another team member. We really enjoyed the trip (Bus from Aberdeen to Stonehaven, then walk by the War Memorial and finally enjoy the castle). We must have passed your (former?) home then by bus, also on the way back…

@IzzyOnDroid Yeah, knee is on the mend thanks.

You'll have gone pass our house in Porthlethen whilst on the bus I'm sure. The area has changed a quite a lot since we moved away but we still have a soft spot for Stonehaven.
