It is Wednesday and I am up at 5:30AM England time and 12:30AM American time. My body is scream for me to rest and my mind is awake. I am hoping that today I will level off and be come in sync with the new schedule.
Today we are headed to the Lake District. It is suppose to be a beautiful area with of course lakes. I can safely say that my concerns about starving were not correct. I will tuck a protein bar in my bag just in case, but now my concern is turning from starving to death to whether or not I will fit into my clothes by the end of this trip.
Our day in the Lake District was wonderful, we toured William Wordsworths home and gardens. We also took a hiking tour of the area as well as a boat trip across the lake. The boat trip was very relaxing and beautiful. We rode at the top of the boat and we had the warm sun and breeze on us, a wonderful combination. While in the town called Booness, we had lunch in a small pub and enjoyed a grilled cheese and tomato sandwich. Here this sandwich is called toasts.
After lunch we did a little shopping and then rode our bus back to our hotel. It was a two hour ride back to the hotel and we were all drowsy. Dinner was pasta and chicken in cream sauce. There was little seasoning in the sauce, but our long day made us all hungry and the food hit the spot.
Today we are touring a castle and I am certain there will be other unexpected adventures. Rain is expected today. Our weather so far has been warm and sunny. Today rain is expected and I believe that we will see more and more rain as our week goes on. I have brought my ugly rain coat and a cute straw hat so hopefully I will be fortified against the dampness. My biggest frustration of all...no real WiFi, it has been spotty at best. I am very fortunate that this has been my only dilemma, however it makes blogging a challenge.
