Weekend trip ...

We stayed in The lake District - last weekend .

and here are my shots .

Lake Windermere - on a misty but warm early afternoon .

This was a view we had when we walked

down from our hotel that was situated nearside it .

The view we had from our room .

And another view further up the lake .

sunday we spent a delightful few hours

at Levens Hall and Gardens ...

of which we were not disappointed with at all !

It is an old edwardian house from 13th century -

and as usual - you could not take inside photo`s .

But i think the topiary gardens speak for themselves

me underneath a shaped yew tree !

And me taking a photo from underneath it .

Wild garden patch - and there was also

a vegetable plot . As the house is still lived in .

A pair of bronze fighting stags . Which were padlocked

to the ground - so they wouldn`t be taken ..

And a bronze statue of a girl looking upon a

small fountain .This was done by Anne Curry

who i have not heard about myself , but she does

many bronze sculptures .

It was feast for the eyes visiting this place ,

especially if you are into plants and gardening .

I hope you can appreciate it too - through my

pictures !!
