Waterfalls, trekking & cruises at one of the most iconic UK lakeside towns The second exploration day of our trip at the Lake district saw ourselves trekking hills and forests, visiting waterfalls and a topping it with river cruise on Lake Windermere.
Heading to the town of Ambleside!
I am at the top of the world!
well, top on a bus, actually!
and it's a convertible!
Shaun approves of topless buses
But this bus needs more NITROUS!
ah yes, smells like a lake, sounds like a lake, looks like one too!
Where are we again?
we got to meet marine avian residents by the lake
Including adult ulgy ducklings
There don't seem to be a short supply of them.
Few neat hotrods by the lake
ready to board the ship?
not when john finishes his ice-cream!
On the giant floater, umm boat!
sitting on the upper deck is a no-brainer choice
especially for shutter bugs lkike us. :P
John still sucking on his ice cream
Wait we are still at the docks? :/
did someone say cheese?
oh hell yea!
Out on the lake of Windermere!
The lake is a popular sailing spot too
Sailboats optional :3
John with his sailboat impersonation
oh look life rafts! :p
Is that a sampan?
Welcome to Ambleside. YEA DUDES!
An electric hop-on town shuttle service.
A nice artistic take to something actually really functional too!
Quackers
Boats laid on the beachline
Starting out trek to Stockgill
Have legs will travel!
Camping sites along the way
Churchill engineers feel just right at home
Seems we are on the right track!
That way!
Random tree stump musings along the road
Was it left or right again?
Back in the tranquility of the forest!
Beats trekking in a tropical forest, it's so cooling here!
The lack of mosquitoes is also veryyyy reassuring.
yay woodie bridge!
Little streams along our trek
A peek of the hill crest
Oh look moving water!
Everyone's quick with their cameras
shoot off!
Here we are at Stockgill force!
