Cumbria

We woke up in Cumbria with light rain and over cast skies but we didn’t mind a bit. We’re a family that leans to the side of indifference, to actually quite liking rain. So with all of us simultaneously without work or nursery commitments we had a little drive out to Skelwith force where we could experience the Lakeland weather, water and walking all in one go.

In feels good to be living in the Lake District, it feels healthy. We saw the waterfall and continued walking a little towards grand, albeit cloudy views of the Langdales. Even the ducks look healthier. Darwin ran free without us panicking too much and he jumped in every puddle with gay abandon.

At the night time we lit the log fire and everything seemed right with the world.
