Boxing Day, a whiter shade of blue

Snow melt

Apart from the big freeze of Christmas 2010, I cannot remember when Christmas Day was not a grey day during our thirty years here. It was the same again this year but there was an overnight snowfall to brighten up Boxing Day.

Boxing Day is normally a day for some outdoor activity to recover from the Christmas eating fest. Unseasonal sunshine gave us chance to enjoy a walk up Lime Craig before abandoning our attempt to cross the waterfall above so we could climb Craig Mor as well. We decided on dry feet instead and returned to enjoy the Christmas leftovers.
