With Daniel and Bear. the weather forecast was not good and the previous day had seen some torrential rain so we were prepared for wet and muddy terrain and that is exactly what we got! We had only been going for about an hour when the rain started but it conveniently stopped after about three hours - just in time for lunch. We enjoyed beautiful views of the surrounding countryside and the heather in full bloom on Stanton Moor was stunning. As we returned we had a great reminder of our balloon ride last year when we saw the Virgin hot air balloon taking off over Bakewell for the evening excursion. A very enjoyable day in spite of the weather and the fall I had! With bruised knees and ribs I kept going with the lovely thought of a hot bath and cool glass of wine at the end of the day! It only hurts now when I laugh!
