We traveled through Lancashire and on to the Lake District.
There were a number of restaurants in Grasmere; this one overlooked St. Oswald's Church and cemetery where Wordsworth and his family are buried.
Wordsworth and his family are buried in the peaceful cemetery in the shade of a yew tree, one of eight planted by Wordsworth himself in the churchyard.
St. Oswald's Church dates from the 14th Century; about 140,000 people visit the church annually to see the resting place of Wordsworth and his family.
Even though it was mid-September, the flower beds in Grasmere were still lovely.
Our tour guide was right - the scenery while on a cruise of Loch Lomond was stunning!
We took the Nevis cable car ride to the heart of the Nevis Mountain Range - almost on the "roof of Britain" with views of Scotland's scenery.(blog entries by Heidi Hutson)
