A Scottish Travel Diary: Aviemore

Hello again!! Over the course of the past few months I was fortunate enough to visit lots of places in Scotland with friends and family. Travelling Scotland is one of a favourite of my summers as there is plenty to see and lots of different ways of living!

The first place I visited was on my first music tour with the Universities of Scotland Symphony Orchestra. Around 70 of us stayed in Cairngorm Lodge in Glenmore (owned by the SYHA) which is close to Loch Morlich. We had beautiful weather with around 25 degrees on both days which is unheard of for Scotland! 

As it was a music tour we performed at the MacDonald Resort in the Osprey Suite with a repertoire of Holst's Planets, Debussy's Clair de Lune and Neilsens Helios (The Planets, The Moon and The Sun if like me took a while to work out the link between the three) which took up most of our time in Aviemore itself but we had mornings and evenings to ourselves so they were spent on the beach at the Loch!

Loch Morlich at 10pm

Myself and a few friends went for dinner at an Italian buffet restaurant called La Taverna which was delicious! I had a pepperoni pizza which was delicious!!

This photo is currently my phone wallpaper as I think the colours of the sunset are so beautiful! This was taken after our first concert and I sat by the water as a couple of friends went swimming !!
