The Wastwater

Thursday we drove from the town of Ulverston through the western part of the Lake District.  Beautiful doesn't quite do it justice.

We drove up to the Wastwater where we could see the highest peak in England.  The weather is cool but feels even colder with the wind.  We picnicked on the rocks, snapped pictures of the sheep, and the dismal pair of boots I was wearing, not knowing what we were doing that day, got wet through at the bottoms, wetting my feet.  You simply  must have the proper footware in the Lake District.
