Lake Windemere is a beautiful little town with storybook buildings.  It is the home of Beatrix Potter 
(I think), and has a Beatrix Potter store and theme thing for kids.

It was beautiful out so we decided to take a boat ride around the lake.  A few sprinkles chased the rest of my group downstairs and under cover, but I "braved" the weather and got a history lesson of the area from a local man. 

By the time we got back to shore, the weather had changed and it was pouring.  I had just gotten under a small roof when I heard a loud roar.  It was the Red Arrows!!!  AWESOME!!!


Mouse Under Glass at Beatrix Potter's

You can't see really good, but this place
is "Mrs. Gee's".  (Barbara, I hope you see this!)

 
 
 
 


See, it really was beautiful and sunny out!
 
 
 


 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 
 


WoW!!!  The Red Arrows!  (Equivalent to our Blue Angels)
 
 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 


You can't imagine what a thrill it was watching them!
 
 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 
 



 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Saturday night we were back in Manchester.  We went to dinner at a Turkish restaurant with the Airleys and their friends.  Yummm, I love Turkish food now!


 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 



 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Sunday morning, it was brunch at the Airleys.  Linda's mom and Andy (my internet friend) joined us.


 
 
 
 



 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A little while later we were on a train headed back to London.
