The walk in my week took in two very pretty places
Ambleside
in
Cumbria
English Lake District
This beautiful Princess of the Lake brightened a stormy landscape
Even on a cloudy summer's day little boats still bob around on
Lake Windermere
The majestic qualities of the hills above Lake Windermere are hard to resist
Arnside
is
a pretty seaside town in Cumbria
on the edge of the English Lake District
Arnside is famous for its tidal bore
The tidal bore results from a combination of the high tidal range and the shape of the bay as it narrows into the Kent Estuary at Arnside. The water enters the tapering estuary and the rising waters become confined which results in a distinct wave developing, which can be anything from a few centimetres to almost a metre high on full spring tides.
Lovely pictures Josie, and one of my favourite places in the world, Ambleside and indeed the whole of the Lake District. Good to see there's always a book or kindle close to hand! :)
