The Lakes

by aah_stone - last update: Mar 25, 2004

Lakes and Mountains

Towards Windermere
Wow, what an absolute gem of a place. The Lake District in Cumbria, North West England. Words just can't quite describe it enough you just have to go!!!

When at University I had the opportunity to visit on many occasions and I instantly fell in love with the place. So many interesting villages and towns. So many beautifl mountains and lakes. I need to go again and soon :-)
Me trying to get some shut eye
Beware though, it can all get a bit much sometimes. When that happens you have just got to stop and have a nap. ;-)
Early morning Windernere
An early start sometimes may be necessary. Often it is worth it as the views can be even more beautiful
