First Walk. Latterbarrow and Bluebell woods.

 Our Japanese visitors took so many photos on this glorious first day. As you can see these woods are so delightful. It has been such a cold wet spring but the upside is that wonderful spring green has been prolonged.

I don't think any of us expected to wake to such a day, after all yesterday was cold with a cutting northerly wind. However this is The English Lake District and days like this when they come have a special flavour.

This first days walk is relatively gentle as Latterbarrow although a really excellent viewpoint is not too high. We have a gentle walk to test the walking caperbilities of our guests as later walks will be more demanding. From the top of Latterbarrow there are good views of Lake Windemere, Englands longest lake, actually only about 10 miles.
