Went to Colorado for the first time on business. Photo of Pike’s Peak (I believe) in Colorado Springs. Sorry for the graininess — taken with my Droid very quickly.

past travel log: lake district 3 [2007]
Read my two other Lake District 2007 travel logs here: 1 & 2.
This time, I’m going to talk a little first about the Fairfield Horseshoe — a 10.5 mile hike from Rydal Mount into Ambleside. I found an outline and description of the hike here, but the description doesn’t do it justice. I don’t know if my travel log below does it justice either, but I hope that my photographs bring the hike alive.

past travel log: lake district 2 [2007]
Maybe you’re wondering why I’m posting old travel logs. Well, I’m not currently doing any overseas traveling and since I didn’t have this blog when I spent time in the Lake District, I decided I wanted to share those experiences now, even though it’s been over 3 years. The passed time doesn’t change the experience.
Find the first in my past Lake District travel log here.

past travel log: lake district 1 [2007]
To preface, I want to do a short 3-part series of travel logs from a short study abroad trip I took in the summer of 2007. I’ve been going through some photos lately, and some from that trip caught my eye. I dug out my travel journal and typed up some of the more interesting pieces, pieces that I could combine with photographs.
The trip was to the Lake District in Cumbria, England, where Williams Wordsworth and Samuel Taylor Coleridge lived and wrote. In fact, quite a few of their poems could be placed directly to locations we visited. We did a lot of hiking as well. The Lake District is known for its fells (mountains) and tarns (lakes) and the hiking that happens in and among them all.
