Glasgow to the Lake District

Today was our final day in Scotland - we were back in England before midday, and were in the Lake District for a tapas lunch complete with espresso martinis.

Thoughts on the Lake District are:
1) It's pretty beautiful
2) It's pretty touristy
3) It's nothing on the Scottish Highlands

WIthout putting too fine a point on it, the Lake District is a small area of the Scottish Highlands in England,. If you can't get yourself up the Highlands, ithe Lake District is a great spot to soak up some natural beauty. If you can get enough time to get up to the Highlands, you won't regret it.

For every Lake Windemere in the Lake District, there are 10 lochs in the Highlands. For every walk through the Lake Distict, there are 10 in the Highlands. And as a bonus for those looking to retreat from the world that bit more, the Highlands are that much more remote and quiet.
