Esthwaite Water
Had quite a busy day in the tea rooms, everybody sitting outside though. Its been a stunning day with clear skies and the temperature got up to 27 degrees.Helen and I had a walk tonight down through the holiday flats and on to the shore of Esthwaite Water, we walked around what we call the island, but its not, and back out on to the road and then up into the village.
Todays pics are one of Esthwaite taken by Paco aka Denis and one of the post box at Buckle Yeat.
