The Lake District 13th October 13

Hi Folks
Another visit to the Lake District!
Our first walk of the week this time in Borrowdale, we started in Rosthwaite walking up the river toward Derwent Water then cut round the back of Castle Crag.
Hills above Rosthwaite
Almost blue sky

Looking down to Derwent Water Castle Crag on the right
Hawthorn growing out of the wall supporting the footpath


A short uneventful walk until I lost my footing crossing the stream and fell in knocking my head on a stone.
The stream that decided to eat me!

Amazingly other than a mild headache I have no injuries and actually did not get very wet either. On route back to car we stopped for a cup of tea at this cafe couldn't resist taking a photo of the sign.



A short trip down Borrowdale we stopped to have a look at the Bowder Stone


Now following last years October visit her are some of the fungi we spotted on the way.
