Afternoon On Ullswater

Like much of the country Cumbria saw some snow last night and waking this morning there was a good covering remaining even at low levels.

I understand that there were plenty of issues on the regions' roads overnight but by this morning a combination of slightly milder temperatures and the efforts of the local authorities resulted in, for me at least, trouble free travel.

Nige & I set off just after lunchtime with one of my open canoes to enjoy a short paddle in stunning scenery on a breezy Ullswater. As well as making the most of the conditions we planned to continue to ascend (hopefully!) the steep learning curve of "how to best use" the GoPro Hero3 camera.
