Summer Holidays!

Instead of heading off for a big summer holiday abroad this year, the wife and I decided since we now have the use of a car, we should take a few long weekends or week breaks here in the UK.

So with that in mind we have booked up to visit one of our favourite locations in the UK, the English Lake District. We'll be here for about 5 days during July, camping out and getting back in touch with nature.
It just so happens that we won't be too far off from the Ravensglass and Eskdale Railway, a fantastic seven-mile stretch of line which has been described as the most beautiful train journey in England! It runs from Ravensglass to Dalegarth Terminus, which is based at the foot of some of England's Highest Mountains.

Not happy with just one possible Railway Adventure, I've also earmarked the Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway, to the south of Lake Windermere, near to our campsite. Excellent!

All that needs to be done is to get the Missus to agree!

Until next time,

Craig
