On Wednesday my daughter and I headed up to Rydal Water for an open water swim. It was such a beautiful day and so peaceful:
We parked in the LDNP car park (note it only accepts cash at the moment) and took a short walk to a secluded little beach. Then we went out into the blissfully warm water:

We both enjoyed swimming around and trying out the action camera:
It was a real boost to the spirits to be out in what felt like a private lake with just the occasional duck for company:
Here is a video compilation from our dip:
