Our trip to York in October 2010 for our Ruby Anniversary

This year we celebrated our Ruby Anniversary and the family decided to send us to York for a few days

In all we spent many hours trudging the Snickleways, streets, walls, Castle Museum and the National Rail Museum, and as such took loads of photos.

Lake District - 2006

In 2006 we embarked on a trip to the Lake District, walking round one of lakes, Rydal, which was a 4 mile trek, up and down hills and along various terrains.  Later we went on a 45 minute boat trip on Windermere, when the inevitable happened.  It rained!  Albeit for a short time whilst we were on the boat trip.  The initial photos were taken on the walk and the latter two from the boat on Windermere.

(Help the Aged, as someone suggested!) View over Rydal View over Rydal How did those stones get there?
