The adventure continues




We left York and made our way to the Lake District. The drive was beautiful! We traveled through the countryside and saw beautiful, green lands and lovely houses.


Some of the countryside.


The first lake we visited was Windemere. This is where Beatrix Potter, the author of Peter Rabbit, lived. A very charming village right on the lake.

Then we had lunch at Glasmere Lake. This is where William Wordsworth lived. We visited his grave after lunch. It’s easy to see why poets and authors lived in this area. It’s so inspiring. I had visions of living in a little cottage on the lake front writing all day long.

Our drive then continued into Scotland. I loved seeing the highlands with the sheep roaming on the sides of the hills.

There are a lot of trees in Scotland and the sides of the roads are covered in gorgeous purple Heather.

We ended up in Glasgow. Glasgow is the biggest city in Scotland.
