The Easter holidays have been a little muddled with Easter falling so early. Some schools finished for Easter during Easter week and some schools had the bank holiday and are now on holiday for two weeks. So far during this period, the weather has been very mixed. We've had sunshine and showers and some very wet days combined with a few odd sunny days.
Wherever we've been this Easter period, the weather has been mainly cold and wet. For the Easter weekend we visited South Cumbria and enjoyed some lovely walks and views amidst the sunshine and heavy rain. Dark clouds threatened us everywhere we went and sometimes we got soaked and sometimes we managed to skip the showers, but we didn't let it stop us. Everything has a different view in the wet and covered in rain drops and all the plants and scents are much fresher and stronger.
I was pleased to see that the daffodils were out in their glory everywhere we turned - some flowering and some still in bud. I'd wondered back in the depths of winter whether we'd have any left by March, as some started flowering in December and January the weather was so mild, so it was good to see most are in bloom at their normal time of year.
