19 June – 8th July 2019 Keswick
Enjoyed 3 weeks in Keswick running, cycling and catching up with our many friends and lots of coffee. Managed to be out running up Latrigg when some running friends were taking their wedding vows in front of their many friends. We also saw the Skiddaw race but as we get older we only knew a few of the runners. Whilst out at Lingholm Gardens Café saw 2 of the Alpacas that graze there.
There was the Keswick Regatta and also a Music Festival in the market square and Fitz Park and the Scarecrow Festival in Threlkeld. The stay on the campsite was, as usual good, but does tend to get a bit noisy when the tents (Eurocamp style) are busy.
9th – 10 July 2019 Barnard Castle
Good drive across from Keswick. Lovely walk into town from the campsite and then went to look around the Bowes Museum. Made sure we there at 2.00 pm to see the silver swan in action.
Weather a bit mixed but lovely sunshine this afternoon. There looks like they may have had a problem on this site. It can be a bit muddy on the walk back from town.
