I wandered lonely as a cloud

…….that floats on high…. Ok enough you get it. Wordsworth country. We’re in the Lake District after flying from Lisbon to Manchester yesterday and driving up here in the afternoon. No daffodils but beautiful rolling hills and stone walls. Saw where Wordsworth is buried, the house he lived in plus Dove Cottage and Museum. Dove Cottage where he lived and wrote a lot of his poems. Was fantastic. It was a full day where we did what is expected. Ie ate scones with jam and cream and took a country stroll. Gazed upon herds of black faced sheep that dot the countryside. Think the breed is Herdwick. It’s also Derwent coloured pencil land. It’s a good time to come here, colours of autumn makes me want to get some pencils and start colouring in. Also…. plenty of hiking shops and I admit to spending a bit getting some great waterproof gloves and a few other things. Ready for our next hiking adventure. 👏😊 (am going to need to reconsider giving up hiking 😬)Read more
