Last sunday i spent a day driving around the Lake District. to say it was awe inspiring is an understatement 
If i imagine this area its always shrouded in mist and rain sprinkled so i wasnt let down and seen these mountains in their best form..mystical and unpredictable !
i began at Ullswater which lies south between Penrith and Keswick. our campsite was only 4 miles from its northern point so a great place to start en route to a lap around it.
ill post these pix in the order of approach...
all the roads were just about wide enough for 1 car at places and when i reached the summit towards Loadpot Hill the road narrowed to the width of a "Smartcar"
look at the snakey road the whole way up here !!
i drove as far as a car could go then slinked my way back down to head towards a little village called Pooleybridge which would take me down the west side of Ullswater.
