Daddy said I would enjoy it and I did! I have learned to swim and Daddy can't keep me out of the water. I climbed three peaks - Beacon Fell (twice), Brockbarrow and Lingmoor and I walked from Skelwith Bridge to Elterwater and back. I could have done a lot more but apparently this would be bad for my joints and bones at my age. (The only downside is the number of ticks I got - yuck!) I can't wait to go back again. As soon as I arrived home, I jumped into the pond!
Here are some pictures of my exploits.
We spent the last fortnight in the Lake District, when we did a lot of swimming rather than walking as it rained most of the time. My previous posts showed some of my exploits in the water. The longest walk was this one which took us over Wool Knott, Tottlebank Height and Blawith Knott. These are in Wainwright's The Outlying Fells of Lakeland (also known as the Geriatric Wainwrights). We also did some tarn bagging as well (Beacon Tarn again, a tarn at White Borran which is not on Nuttalls' list, and Lang Tarn).
