Our first hike in England. The route said caves, but really they are just towards the end. We had to climb over a mountain first. Admittedly not a very tall one, and it probably doesn't clarify as aЧитать далее

Our second hike. Grace didn't like the elevation of yesterday's hike so today's is more flat. It's also 50% longer at 15km.
The weather was not as good as yesterday, quite overcast, but still goodЧитать далее

Our last full day in Ambleside. It's a more chill day...for Grace. We started off with a walk through town to find a waterfall. After completing the loop of the waterfall I left Grace to find her wayЧитать далее

The British museum is very close to where we are staying. It's also free to visit. I thought we'd spend a couple of hours here then go visit the Tate, but there is so much to see. We ended up spendingЧитать далее

Путешественник Thanks Robert for explaining the 2 Westminster's. I didn't realise that there was two but it makes sense.

Путешественник Robert you have again visited significant sites. I am comfortable with your comments … they are ones I share and why I’ve hesitated at visiting. Genuine Thanks 🤞
