This is one of the views from across Derwentwater, a large body of water in the Lake District National Park, Cumbria. The last time I visited here was 18 years ago. I wonder why I left it so long when there is so much beauty here amidst nature.

A reminder of how beautiful northern England is. Glad you enjoyed your holiday!
I haven’t been to the Lake District since a childhood visit but keep meaning to go back. I have explored it through Arthur Ransome’s famous books in the meantime π

In sunshine there is no better place for views though Scotland is pretty good as well, And Wales. And Cornwall π
In fact when the sun is shining the UK has some of the most spectacular scenery in the world.

In reading about the place, I learned that fells is a word for what we call hills, and these surely are lovely. I like the sinuous curve along the top of the hill in the photo.

We call them hills, too, but in this area they are commonly called fells. There are also mountains here, too. I was trying to find the name of the fell in the image, I am a one for knowledge of places. I will have to try harder. Thank you, Linda π
