[Day 5] 山頂好視野 Orrest Head

原本很苦惱, 剩下來的一個早上不知道要去哪裡.
同hostel的香港人建議附近就有一個小步道, 可以到高點俯瞰整個Windermere.

I wasn't sure where should I go to spend the whole morning.
A guy from HongKong told me that there is a nice passway and I can see the whole Windermere Lake at the top of the hill.









舒服的天氣, 完美的風景, 這時候還有什麼好不滿足的~~
How could I ask for more when being with such a nice weather and brilliant view?!!!


Windermere湖上大大小小的船都變成白白的點
在Windermere等火車. 要回家了
I was waiting for the train with chips, sparkle drink, and the novel "PS I love you" I just bought.
回到利物浦了
Here I am in Liverpool! 要回荷蘭了, 利物浦機場又叫約翰藍濃機場, 所以機場有他的雕像.
It is time to go back to Holland. Bye~ John Lennon~!!!

[Day 4] 回到Windermere

搭上彼得兔專車~~ 要從Keswick回到Windermere
I took the Peter Rabbit Bus :D

車子經過Ambleside的橋屋, 隔著馬路看, 真的好小間.
The bridge house.

Back to Windermere.
彼得兔又出現了
放好東西又走到湖邊的Boness碼頭


一下子從Keswick來到Windermere,
感覺不太習慣.
雖然是星期天的下午, 很多商店都沒開, 但還是到處都觀光客.
哪裡有Keswick的優閒跟愜意~
It was the Sunday evening, most of the shops were closed.
But there were still lots of tourists in Windermere.
I quite miss the peaceful atmosphere in Keswick.......


一個人就沒住漂亮的B&B了~

這天住的青年旅館Lake District Backpackers Lodge就離車站只有3分鐘, 價錢便宜.
雖然離Boness比較遠, 但是離可以俯瞰整個Windermere步道很近! :)
(下一篇會介紹~~)

但代價就是沒有很乾淨, 房間很潮濕, 所以床墊有點發黴.
晚上四人房就只有我一個人睡.....怪恐怖的....

而且平常只有來打掃的人, 沒有櫃台, 要自己按門口的號碼鎖進去.
住宿錢也是自己放在信封裡, 寫上名字, 投到保險箱裡面.

[Day 4] 小鎮,湖邊散步去 Visit Keswick again

中午從石圈回來, 繼續往反方向的Keswick小鎮走,
然後又走另一條路, 回到Keswick湖邊.
路過一間寫著台灣的門牌!?
After the stone circle, I went to Keswick town and the lakeside again.
There was a doorplate "Taiwan!?"


走進公園裡, 陽光被大樹遮住, 變得陰陰暗暗的.
然後我聽到很清楚的小女生的歌聲, 發毛~~~好恐怖......
原來有個小女生在我頭頂的樹上,
她的名字是夏綠蒂, 很大方的讓我照相.
我隨口問她怎麼上去的阿?!
她還很熱心的想下來重爬一次示範給我看 XD
It was a little bit dark in the park coz the sunshine was covered by tall trees.
Suddenly, I heard a clear voice of young girl singing. Trust me, it was really scary......
I saw a girl above the tree. Her name is Charlotte.
I asked her how did she get there?
She's so innocent and wanted to show me again how she climb up the tree.

草坪上都是露營的人



一家四口

Isn't it lovely?! :)


Among the fields of gold. I remember you.






晃晃繞繞以後, 4個小時過去了,
繞了一小圈回到原地, 夏綠蒂還在樹上@@
很大方的問我要不要吃香蕉糖~~
I went back in 4 hours later.
Charlotte is still on the tree?!!!!
She's so generouse in sharing her banana sweet to me! :)

[Day 4] 卡斯特林格石圈 Castlerigg stone circle

就是這個石圈
Castlerigg stone circle



綿羊幼稚園
The kindergarten of sheeps!!

小綿羊像狗
跟這兩個自行車騎士也有一段故事可以講~

我們是住同一寢室的, 前一天晚上當我回去, 他們兩個已經睡得死死的了(才九點多).
早上在電視間聊天, 他們是從NewCastle過來.
我嚇一跳, 以為他們是騎腳踏車來的XD (其實是坐火車啦)

他說前一天他們早上四點就出發, 所以晚上已經癱了~
今天也會要到石圈, 不過不趕時間, 晚點再出發.

這時BBC剛好講到英鎊貶值, 所以英國人到歐洲玩變得很貴.
前面這位先生的太太就是來自東歐,
他說每次他們回去, 一年變得比一年貴.....
我問他們為什麼不用歐元?
他回答說, 可能有人很在意鈔票上面有沒有女王頭像吧!

我下山的時候就看到他們啦~

I chatted with the riders in the TV room. It was talking about the depreciation of pounds on BBC. It makes British people cost more and more when they travel in Europe.
The wife of one of them comes from Rumania. He said the cost was really different when they go back this year.
I asked him, "why don't you British just use Euro?"
He answered me, "Maybe some people really care there is the Queen's face on their bill or not."

They started cycling from 4am and was so tired yesterday.
So today they would like to take their time and also want to visit the stone circle.

When I was leaving the stone circle, I met them again on the way!

在湖區完全就是愜意跟悠閒阿~~~

[Day 4] 早上溪邊散步去 take a little walk along the stream

一早起來, 在青年旅館的電視間裡邊喝咖啡,邊看BBC.
還跟同寢室的單車騎士小小個聊天(他們會在後面那篇出現)

之後我就先出發了, 今天的目標是就在Keswick附近的一個石圈.

In very early morning, I had a cup of coffee and chatted with the riders who lived in the same dorm. They came from somewhere around Newcastle and had cycled all day long.
Then I was going to visit the Castlerigg stone circle! :)

天氣很好, 空氣很新鮮, 我也不趕時間的在附近亂晃
hostel前面就是一條小溪流.

隨便挑條不知名的步道小徑,
這就是一個人閒晃的樂趣阿~





我問這位先生, 要去看石圈是不是這條路?!
他說就在前面, 再十分鐘就到了!!

三十分鐘後, 又遇到他下山來,
笑著說, "真的就在前面了, 五分鐘就到了!"
於是我再繼續走............

I asked this old man am I on the right way?
He told me, "It only takes 10 minutes more!! You're almost there!"

Thirty minutes later, I met him again on his way back.
He smiled at me and said, "Trust me, only 5 minutes more!!"



山丘跟牛羊, 永遠看不膩的風景
I'll never get tired of this scenery.
