Lake District, Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway One of the many steam locos run by the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway. Catch the ferry from Ambleside down to Bowness and continue on to Lakeside. From Lakeside take the train, usually steam hauled, down to Haverthwaite and take a leisurely stroll down to the Anglers Arms for an excellent lunch and return the way you came. In the inimitable words of Wallace and Gromit... A Grand Day Out. This picture appears in the following picture tour: Camera Make: OLYMPUS IMAGING CORP. Model: E-410 |

Loweswater Show Fell Race The little dots threading up the middle of the hill are the runners in the fell race. They are an unbelievable breed. Don't think they have brains, or at least have it removed out for the duration. Run!! up a hill then run, fall, slip down the same hill all in the name of fun......Just short of 3 miles in less than 22 minutes. The winner showing serious contact with a barbed wire fence or somthing similar. Very entertaining all the same This picture appears in the following picture tour: Camera Make: Canon Model: Canon EOS 500D |
