4.7.2011 Ambleside, Lakes District - UK

We were very lucky to wake up to another beautiful blue sunny day in Ambleside where we set off for a 5 hour walk around Wansfel starting with the waterfalls then walking up a steep hill to get views over Ambleside. We then walked over the other side of the hill past the Mortal Man Inn for a drink, through Troutbeck and back down into Ambleside for fish and chips, cumberland sausage and scapmi for dinner!
