I went with William Lee and Howard Shum to Lake District from 8^thJune to 10^th June. We went to Penrith, Keswick, Mount Blencarha, Ambleside and Winderemere.

8 June- Tuesday

We left early on Tuesday Morning from London for a Virgin Train from London Euston to Penrith, where we then took a bus to Keswick.
To our surprise, we found a room for us at the YHA Hostel at Keswick, at only less than £10/day. We then had a nice, cheap pub lunch and went sightseeing................


We went to see the Lake Keswick.	We hired a boat to have a good row.........................	Howard as seen from this photo here is having fun wetting everyone, including himself :-)

9 June- Wednesday

We went hiking- Mount Blencatha. We took a short bus ride and walked from around 9:30am till around 4pm...

At Long Last, we reached the summit.......

10 June- Thursday

Having had an exhausting day hiking, we decided to go sight-seeing at Ambleside and Windermere.

At Ambleside, we visited a glass studio where we saw how glass are made.
At Winderemere, we had our lunch and visited the Lake at Winderemere

And finally, we get on board a bus to Lancaster, using the 'Explorer' one day ticket we bought at Keswick where we took a train back home............
