Bright day

A lovely day today - so calm and  bright after the weekend. As we drove along the A66 it started to rain a little but the sun was so bright behind us it was no wonder that we had a glorious rainbow in front of us. Even with a photo taken with my phone through a rainy windscreen it is possible to see what a lovely sight this was. 

We went to choose and buy a Christmas tree, then went into Carlisle. We walked through the Cathedral precinct and stopped at the Fratery Cafe for something to eat. This lovely building, which we watched being built, is very popular. Then I went round the corner to the hairdresser. A little later we returned to the cafe for coffee and mince pies and then went into the Cathedral to look at the trees in the Christmas Tree Festival. I liked this one (Extra) done by Cumbria Wildlife Trust to show all that has been achieved this year.
