Yeah! Our prayers have been answered. The sun is really out!

Our lovely day begins with a traditional English breakfast again. This time with black pudding! Mmm.. acquired taste, but glad I got to try it. Took Des' advice to drive to Derwent Water and then loop back to Windermere. Explore some waterfall and many windy road. A real test to my manual driving skills. At one point, I almost roll back to the horror of my fellow travellers. But phew, close shave!

Stopped by Grasmere on more time, to grab the traditional ginger bread as souvenirs. Wow, so crowded... Have to queue to get in and when it's your turn, we didn't have much time to ponder what we wanna buy. Dun even know if it's nice :p

Rush rush rush... we finally made it back to Windermere by 3pm. Stayed in another beautiful Ellerbrook B&B. After handing back the car, to our relief, we headed straight to Peter Rabbit Museum. The exhibits are so colourful and lively! Kinda feel like going back to childhood days. Determined to find a little Peter Rabbit to bring home with me 😊

Not many places opened for dinner. After another cosy dinner, we headed back to B&B to prepare for our train back to London early early tmr morning. No more lovely English breakfast 😞
