Elterwater, day 2
      |   
So yeah . . . this is day 2. After a fairly hair-raising journey through Wrynose and Hardknot passes (it was the steepness, the hair-pin bends and the huge drifts of snow, casually scraping our wing mirrors), we got the steam train from Dalegarth to Ravenglass. I don't seem to have many pictures here, which might be on account of the drizzle. See, we had lunch at Ravenglass and remembered that there's not really that much to do at Ravengarth, and so got the train back to Dalegarth. The picture of the rhododendron are from when we went for a walk, which started somewhere near Dalegarth and took us to some kind of waterfalls. We didn't get all the way as some of us didn't have appropriate footwear and the rain was making the stone steps a little slippy and a little slip could have ended with a big fall down to some rocks. But it was all good. We took the long road back, which way have a bit silly, as it took about an hour and a half, or thereabouts. But hey . . . we're on holiday. Who cares?
