Wintery walk in the Lake District

Caron and I loaded up the dogs and went off for a walk around the Walna Scar Road, Coniston. It was a fantastic snowy cleat day, with awesome views back towards home and the coast. The dogs had a great time playing in the snow!

Walking in Eskdale, Lake District

I have been lucky to have had a week off, travelling first down to North Devon to visit my parents. They have moved and run a fantastic Bed and Breakfast, at Chittlehamholt, very close to the fantastic beaches and scenery of the North Devon coast. Their www site is here. Caron and I took the dogs down with us and had fantastic walks along the beach at Saunton and at Instow

We then travelled up and spebnt a few nights in Eskdale, close to Wastwater, in the Lake District. Again, we travelled with the dogs, so spent our time walking with them. Caron's sister and brother in law (Caroline and Rob) joined us with their dogs too-so we had quite a pack. I took these pictures while we were walking up around Irton Pike, one of the view towards the coast (as a panorama) and the other looking up into Wasdale
