Showing posts with the label holiday

2017 August

It was a very busy month August. I guess being part of the school summer holidays helps to make it that bit more busier, but we really didn't stop much at all......  From walks with the dog, car-boot, tenpin bowling, airshow, a tv show recording, fun days out and so much more...

Holiday in the Lake District part 2

TIME FOR THE LAST LOT OF PICTURES TAKEN WHILE WE WERE AWAY IN THE LAKE DISTRICT. On one of our walks we went on, well I won’t say we went all the way up a mountain but it felt high, I’m sure the air was getting thin   . We parked at Dodd Woods, next to  The old sawmill  and followed the river running down it. A good way up we stopped at a group of birds watchers who showed us a few locations about half a mile away with their spotting scopes. Great views right across Bassenthwaite Lake. 

Holiday in the Lake District part 1

After the last few months of worry over our youngest son and his health, and the doctors telling us we shouldn’t take him abroad, we had to cancel our holiday to Cyprus. It was a shame as we have wanted to take our boys to where we got married for many years now, maybe another time.   For our last few breaks we have spent them at Center Parcs so this time we thought we would try somewhere new. We found a place in Keswick called  Keswick Reach Lodge Retreat .  Very new and very nice, not much on site, but only a 20mins drive into Keswick centre.  On arriving in the Lake District we first stopped off at  Castlerigg Stone Circle ,  it is among the earliest British circles, raised in about 3000 BC during the Neolithic period. After that we moved onto  Keswick Climbing Wall  which was just down the road for the boys to spend sometime climbing the walls!!

Favourite pictures taken In December

Here are a few of my favourite pictures I took in December.  Lots happened in this month including a visit from our Christmas Elf which got upto lots every day.

Me and a camera April 2014

   April was a very busy month, most of my pictures were taken while we were at DisneyLand Paris (well over 1700), but of course I won't show all here, when I have some time I will get around to posting our Disney trip with some details.  We also have here some pictures from Speke Hall
