On Friday, we settled in and explored some public footpaths by the lake. Lake Windermere is the largest lake in the Lake District, and its absolutely beautiful.
On Saturday, we climbed a lookout hill, and then braved our way up a mountain. The views from the top were spectacular. Unfortunately my camera didn't do it justice.
On Saturday night we had a Fish & Chips night and stayed in and watched movies. I don't know how many of us actually stayed awake for the movie though... mountain climbing is just a bit tiring.On Sunday morning, we walked to Russell's (one of our Capernwray lecturers) church in Windermere, and made it with only one or two wrong turns. The afternoon was spent relaxing and walking around Bowness, and we had a barbecue down by the lake in the evening, followed by staying up late playing Circumstances and Psychiatrist.
It was an amazing weekend, and a really good way to say goodbye to a lot of my Capernwray friends.
I'm back at Capernwray now, working on Housekeeping staff. In the morning, I clean rooms and empty rubbish bins, and in the evenings, I work in the Beehive, which is Capernwray's coffee shop/cafe. It's fun being at Capernwray in a whole different context. Karena is still here, so I get to spend time with her as well.
On April 9th, I'm taking the ferry to Dublin to meet my mom and travel around that area, followed by flying to Madrid and traveling in Spain. I'll be done and back home in Wisconsin on April 18th. It's all gone so fast!
I've uploaded many many more albums of pictures from the whole of my time at England on facebook. If you'd like to see my pictures from Capernwray or the Lake District, etc. check out my albums on facebook. There's probably ten of them. =]
