London

Admiralty ArchLondon –  known as the global capital of the world – where English is not the primary language heard on the streets.

Home to six Unesco world heritage sites.

Large beautiful parks offer a peaceful refuge for those needing to step away from overcrowded streets and the jam-packed Tube.

London has it all.  Old and new – fast and slow – expensive and more expensive.

The Lake District in England

London after dinner, sleep and breakfast on a flight from San Francisco we dropped a big bag of clothes at our hotel and hopped a train to the Lake District – spending the first night in Kendal and then Bowness On Windermere.

The train ride was rich with rolling bright green lush hills dotted by woolly white sheep and hearty cows – all framed by miles upon miles of stone walls.  It was as if Monet painted our views.

A cold cloudy day was the perfect backdrop for a boat ride to the town of Ambleside famous for being the home of Beatrix Potter – this year her 150th birthday.
