Lake District, August 2008

only a year late!
my project for what remains of my summer holidays will be to post pictures from my travels during my first year of teaching in the UK. thanks to half terms and a decent paycheck i made it quite a few places.

at the moment though...these are from the Lake District in North England...camping in the rain with some friends from summer camp. there were a few things i couldnt' figure out: 1. why the english would decide to put a 'campsite' that really was a field in the valley between several mountains. 2. why the english camp in the first place.


Keswick or Kendal?
