Double Dipping!

It's been well documented in this blog that Beth is the planner and brains of this twosome.  She hasn't admitted it yet but I don't think it was by accident that she's double dipping!  You see it's Mothers Day today over here so she gets two of them this year.
Her English Mothers Day was pretty laid back.  We enjoyed a nice breakfast here at the hotel.  Enjoyed some time sitting by the lake reading.  Did a short walk that was very nice and with none of the adventures like our walk Friday.
We did ride over to a local beach (Roanhead Beach) and looked around a bit.  As you will see in the pictures it was quite different, especially with the tide being out.  Finished off the day with a nice Mothers Day meal at the White Swan Hotel just down the road at Newby Bridge.

The weather the last two days has been pretty darn close to perfect.  Sunny skies, no wind, lows around 40 and highs around 60.  It's on to Edinburgh tomorrow.
Happy English Mothers Day to all you mums (I've learned to speak British)!

Found her again!




Demonstrating my ability to walk on water.........much easier at low tide!

Found her again, this time on the beach
