A wonderful day in the Lakes

Yesterday being Easter Monday and the kids on holiday from school we made a picnic and took a trip to one of my favourite places......The Lake District. I just love it there and would live there if I didn't love Blackpool so much. The weather was awful when we set off, really foggy and cold, but when we arrived at Brockhole it began to change and the sun eventually came out. Apparently it stayed foggy all day in Blackpool so I'm glad we went! The kids played on the park to burn off some energy.

Then we had our picnic. Mario was being rude so had to take time out and stand in the corner haha.

After that we all went to watch a one man circus act. He was quite entertaining but not really a patch on what we get in Blackpool during Showzam.

Then the kids went on the Tree Nets and had a great time running, bouncing and sliding around them. I just wish I was younger and fitter and I'd have been up there with them. 

Photo bombed by Tina :)

Mario paid for us all to go on a boat trip which was perfect :)

     Then we let the kids (including Mario) have a few more minutes on the park

All in all an absolutely perfect day. Thank you Mario :D 

A quick visit to Cleveleys prom

It was so cold today but I really wanted to get out and take some photo's of the snowy mountains in the Lake District which can be viewed from the beach at Cleveleys. I only managed a few because it was an icy cold wind which made using my tripod difficult. We took Mum along for the ride but she went back to the car after a couple of minutes. Anyway here are the few I took plus a couple of the birds in my back garden. Hospital tomorrow for a decision on whether I'm able to start on my new treatment for my RA. I really hope it gets sorted this time so I can be in less pain.....
