22 March 2012 CAPTAIN'S AL AND CAL Thursday

We woke to delightful sunshine and so made for Windermere lake to hire a motor-boat with a max speed of 10mph - look at us go, or at least putt-putt.  To those of you who don't believe I Captained the previous boat, here's living proof that I was "CAP"tain

okay so maybe for all of 30 seconds only, until a big ferry came up behind us and I abandoned the wheel, to the greater skill of Co-Captain Al.

It was glorious, bobbing along the waterways feeding the ducks by hand from the boat.  We set down anchor (actually just floated aimlessly) while enjoying our packed lunch and drinks (ssh) with magnificent views all around us.



Back to base, where we sat relaxing while the world went by - sorry KPMG but I have converted Al at last! A slow meander home, stopping here and there to nose around, ending our day with a delicious curry at The Emperor of India.
