Grasmere - One of the Lake District lakes. "-mere" means lake, so it's just Grasmere, not Lake Grasmere. It was very misty for part of our walk around the lake. These two photos were taken on the south shore.
Kirkstone Pass - This is a pass between some of the higher peaks (called "fells") in the lake district. Just beyond the highest point in the pass is this quaint stone bridge across a brook ("beck").
Holehird Gardens - A beautiful garden run entirely by volunteers. This tulip was growing in a bed near the entrance.
Cinder Hill - The name of the house in which we stayed in the Lake District. This building is a combination garage and garden shed.
This magnolia blossom is on a tree in the formal garden of Cinder Hill. The house itself is in the background, out of focus.
