Lake District August 18-22nd

This was our second time visiting lake district, but we stayed at a different town –Keswick.

As always, travelling around in England, we hope for sunshine, and this time, we could hope for no rain, less to say sunshine. It drizzled every single day, and rained heavily on some mornings and nights.

Lake district is well known for her lakes and mountains. Depending on the season you visit, Autumn is the prettiest, where colours of the rainbow are displayed on the vegetation on the mountains. In Summer, we saw mostly green, some red and purple.

We did 2 hikes up to latrigg (400m) and Ashness Bridge (200m). These are push chair friendly hikes. Nathan went on foot half the time. This chap enjoys walking, a little slow and takes us longer to reach the summit, but patience did pay us off, watching him conquer the heights.
