Autumn scenery is magnificent!
Some people love autumn very much. Why?
Because the colours during the autumn are vibrant.
The trees in full autumn colours are glorious.
From green leaves transmuted into yellowish, golden, reddish leaves.
Last year, around end of October school holiday, we went to Lake District, which is about one and half hour to the north of Manchester.
Actually, I already have planned to go to Knaresborough then visit my friend in Newcastle, then go to the Lake District.
However, because of some reasons we only managed to visit Lake District. Anyway, it was just a short weekend gateaway.
From Manchester we straight away headed to Bowness in Windermere. It is one of the popular tourist place at the Lake District. There are another few places that we can visit in Lake District for instances Lakeside, Ullswater, Ambleside and etc.
We had a boat ride to Lakeside from Bowness. Such a good experience to view the autumn scenery along the lake, though it was too cold. Grrrrr!
The boat headed to the Lakeside pier and then, from the Lakeside pier we rode on 'old school' train which was a steam train. Feeling-feeling zaman dodulu. It was return journey.
There was so breezy and windy outside. We couldn't bear on it. So lets go inside the boat. |
There is a small canteen inside |
Very 'old skool train' |
She said what a Halloween train, mummy!! |
Around Bowness on Windermere |
Once the boat journey ended, it started raining heavily. Thanks God we managed to finish it on time.
Nothing we could do when it was raining so we decided to check in the hotel..We checked in the famous hotel in the UK for 'rakyat marhein' like us which is 'Travelodge Hotel'..Hehe
Checked in Travelodge Carlisle 1 hour journey from Bowness. |
Why I chose Carlisle (Pronounce : Kalai) ? This is because my initial plan on that day to go to Knaresborough and Newcastle. Then from Newcastle to Lake District. That is why I chose Carlisle instead of staying at the Lake District. Anyhow, it was worth every penny though.
Ullswater |
Look! Subhanallah it was amazing. We managed to get the best scenery in Ullswater. |
The lens of the camera can't describe how beautiful it was. The best is seeing it with your 'own lens', a gift from Allah. |
Our activities here : Threw the stones and screamed loudly |
Ullswater is a part of Lake District |
This place called Patterdale. It is in between Bowness on Windermere and Ullswater. |
Mountain + traditional UK phone booth + bench. Amazing isn't it? Say no to the dustbin please. |
Please put away the dustbin. Not nice. |
Kirkstone Pass. Beautiful indeed. Just managed to capture the scenery from inside the car. |
Bye - bye Lake District. The nature journey is the best way to relax your mind. I love this place so much! |
