Easy come…easy go.

 

Well, all that lovely cold weather and consequently all the snow and ice have disappeared from the Lakes.  It’s now about 12''c in the valleys! So all wintery fun is on hold at the moment.

It was like this!!!

It is looking like we’ll get a more Northerly airflow at the end of the week and some snow, so you never know, Jack Frost might make a come back yet.  And of course, we’ll try and keep you up to date with what’s going on.

 

On a warmer note, we have a great open canoe trip for families running on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th of June on the River Wye in Gloucester.  This is a brilliant first canoe trip, with good campsites (even showers!) along the way.  We do all the cooking, you just have to paddle and soak up the adventure. For more info go to http://www.lake-district-adventure-activities.co.uk/s/ca/canoe-adventure-on-the-river-wye.html (ignore the listed dates, it’s the 2, 3, 4th june 2012)
