Trains are one of the best ways to get around the UK. ;)
Love the automation on the trains. :P
Thank goodness for seat socket points!
Chilling out for the long train journey
A transfer at Derby station
Digging the modern looking trains
A stopover dinner at the cafe.
This ticket seems valid
Here comes our train!
Hey they sponsored my favorite F1 team too!
These alstom trains are fast, smooth & wicked looking!
At the Oxenholme station
Follow these tracks to Windermeme!
Seems we are the only ones here!
Yup, we are at the right station!
The internal transit train to Windermere
Bumming out in the train before departure
9pm and the sun starts setting!
All aboard!
Our place for the night!
The inn looks exactly like it did on Google images!
OmgPouncableBeanBag!
we had a whole room to ourselves.
We had a very warm welcome by the owner. :3
Checking out the streets of windermeme
in wee hours for noms
there are many eating places around town
Many of the stores are not serving food or closed
But we needed supper!
after some local recomendations, we found ourselves at the only store opened till late
thank goodness for this indian food joint
cheers for our arrival!
Check out the spread!
exploring the streets after supper before heading back
scaring John outside the dark room window
I wondered what freaked him out?
Some night fun with pika pika lights
mesmerizing!
multi-coloured intriguing-ness!
Good morning! at the backpacker's inn
Facilities are good, breakfast too!
Who needs receptionists when a board is just as functional. :P
The backpackers inn in the day
Now to check out the day sights!
The iconic windermere hotel
The town is generally rather hilly
Putting final plans to our sights for the day
no that way!
Up we go!
Oh that explains the dung pile we saw earlier... :P
