Tuesday, June 12, 2018:
Paul and Teresa Hirst along, with Mark and Paula, were back on the road touring
through Scotland. |
 |
|
They stopped at Aira
Force Park for a hike. |
 |
 |
 |
|
There is a water fall with a bridge at the top that is difficult to see in the
left photo. It is a different story when seen from above. |
 |
 |
|
Paula discovered coins
stuck into a tree trunk. A very clever idea! |
 |
 |
|
Mark was marveling at
the size of trees along the way. Paul got a shot of Teresa up to a tree that
is about eight feet in diameter. |
 |
|
The lesson here is, "If
you come to a fork in the road, go that way!" Paula was singing, "You take the low road, I'll take the high road and I'll get to Tipperary before yea." |
 |
|
The hills are colorful
with winding roads. |
 |
|
It seems every road has hand-built stone walls.
Petrol (gasoline) in England and Scotland ran about $7.60 per gallon, after converting liters and British Pounds to U.S. money. |
 |
|
They finally wound up
in Windermere, on the northwest side of England. |
 |
|
There is something odd
about this.....a pub on Church Street. |
 |
 |
|
There are interesting
people in places like this. |
 |
|
The weather is usually
great for outdoor socializing and eating. |
 |
|
Sunset was approaching
and people were out on Bowness Bay of Lake Windemere. |
 |
| One last shot. |
Quote of the day:
Great weather for a wonderful vacation. Mark
