A frosty start to the day but when the sun got to work it was wall to wall sunshine.
We always enjoy the local walks but it is good to have more time and be able to go a bit farther afield.
We parked at White Moss Common then walked up to Alcock Tarn, the visibility was amazing.
This is Alcock Tarn with Windermere in the distance
