Lake district

One thing you probably never need to worry about in UK are hotels. If we would knew about it before we wouldn't bother booking hotels online. Bed and breakfast are so numerous here that if one is full there definitely will be something in the neighborhood available. Unplanned B&B in little countryside town Keswick was so perfect that I think I had one of the most comfortable sleeping ever. It probably was due to king-size bed or countryside air or both...
A lovely view from our window


The usual breakfast menu in every B&B (even Scotland) is English breakfast. This includes fried eggs, fried tomatoes, beans, mushrooms, pieces of bacon and a sausage with toasts. It is very fullfilling and delicious but you can't eat it every single day. So after 3 days of English breakfasts in a row we kindly asked to reduce our breakfast to a few toasts.


During this trip Mark got so much attention from the people we met which not always ended up as we would like to. For example hosts of B&Bs would offer to look after Mark while we were having breakfast, while Mark would simply start crying whenever he would get 2 meters away from us.



Lake District, national park of England was on our way to Scotland and we spent an evening and morning wondering/driving around some part of this area. Keswick probably was the biggest surprise for me. Little cute town! So cute that I was even wondering why I never have heard of it before. Even our guide book said almost nothing about it.



And of course Lake District wouldn't be called like that if not because of numerous lakes of this area. Our hotel was just right next to one of them called Derwent.









Before heading to Scotland we took a little ride to have a last glance at the area. Our hosts suggested us to drive through one moutain pass. And surprise surprise! We drove to the point where you could rent via ferrata equipment. Apparently people also do via ferrata there! Probably not as challenging as in Italy but I bet views would be great too.












Those cute animals were simply everywhere we have travailed those days. No matter what area it was - mountainy or a field sheep are everywhere. I am even wondering how UK is able to consume so much lamb.
