May 15, 2011 - Wateredge & Ambleside

I had the day off today, so I walked down past Ambleside to Wateredge at the top of Windermere Lake and then back up into Ambleside where I met Sarah after her shift at 2pm. It rained lightly the entire walk, but it wasn't too much of a nuicance or enough to get me too wet, even without an unbrella.

On my way back to Ambleside from Wateredge, I saw a horse-drawn carriage heading to a Wedding in Rydal that was drawn by 2 beautiful, black Fresian horses. I wish I had gotten a better photo, but by the time I got my camera out they had already past me.

Sarah and I met up at one of the bookstores in Ambleside and then had lunch at Cafe Treff, where I was finally able to get a chai latte! And it was good too, as was the warm brie and cranberry Sandwich :) After lunch, it had finally stopped raining and we ambled around Ambleside and then back to Nab Cottage.

I probably won't put a blog up tomorrow, since there won't be anything of interest going on. I'll be working most of the day from 10-4, and probably just go for a run before dinner. Both of us have Tuesday off though, so we'll be heading up to Keswick to see the stone Circle at Castlerigg and check out the town, so I'll post on Tuesday...
