The weather looked grim for the weekend so no wild camping for us. We parked near Fitz Park and let Squeaky have a run in the park before we walked to Hope Park. After looking at the birds in the bird hide we enjoyed looking at the flowers.
There are some wild flowers again, we spotted 2 lots, this is the first in close up

We walked to Derwent Water and along the shore path. It was deserted and we had a peaceful walk along the shore path.
Claggy view of Catbells
On the new path to Ings
The last time I was here this part of the path was closed and this is what they were doing. We walked as far as Cat Gill and had some lunch. The weather had improved a little and the cloud began to lift off the fells. We walked back toward Keswick.
Causey Pike seen now
This launch was almost empty but we'd seen a few more with more people on.
Castle Crag beyond the Millenium Stone
Catbells now free of cloud
Along with the better weather there were a lot more people about.
We let Squeaky have another run about in Fitz Park and we spotted a heron on the river
Our walk was 5.6 miles with 84m of ascent.
No photos from Sunday; we did a walk in Gelt Woods and went to Haltwhistle Burn to see the magic tree and I didnt bother with my camera, 5.4 miles and 220m of ascent.
