Boats on the lake
Off to Kendal we go, eventually, Crossing the Lake on the way out we saw a steam boat with swans and ducks in tow, the the ferry docks and the cars disembark. After an uneventful shopping trip we return across the ferry and the clouds had all dispersed and as we where crossing got this shot of the Phoenix sailing down Windermere.
