According to Hargreaves:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe were standing looking out and saw something that looked bizarre. I said to my husband to come and have a look. We stand here all the time and look out and we see boats and kayaks but it didn\u2019t look like anything we have seen here before.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Hargreaves, who insisted that she was not seeking out fame for spotting the infamous LOCH NESS MONSTER, claimed that the <a href=\"http:\/\/cryptopia.us\/site\/category\/monsters\/lake-monsters\/\" target=\"_\">LAKE MONSTER<\/a> had a long neck, which was too long to be that of a seal and it was black in appearance. She also explained how long the creature remained above water:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIt went under the water and disappeared for probably 30 to 40 seconds and then came back up again,\u201d said Mrs Hargreaves. It was around for a good four to five minutes. It was just so strange&#8230; it was so exciting.\u201d \u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Nessie hunter Steve Feltham, who lives in a former mobile library turned research center on Dores beach, said he heard about the possible sighting and believes because it was from residents rather than tourists, it is more credible:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI\u2019m excited by the fact it was locals who had seen it. It\u2019s quite a distance from the shop to the water and they watch everything that goes on there. For them to be impressed then there is a possibility it could have been Nessie.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Inverness Courier has reported that cafe owner Jan Hargreaves and her husband Simon believe they caught a glimpse of Loch Ness\u2019s most elusive resident \u2014 Nessie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2504,"featured_media":12054,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[55,54,322,1121],"class_list":{"0":"post-7860","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-loch-ness","9":"tag-nessie","10":"tag-nessy","11":"tag-news"},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/loch111.jpg?fit=601%2C453&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7860","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2504"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7860"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7860\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10105,"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7860\/revisions\/10105"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12054"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7860"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7860"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cryptopia.us\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7860"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
