Had a lovely morning riding the steam train from Haverthwaite to Lakeside then boarded the Swan for a boat ride on Lake Windermere up to Bowness. After a quick cup of coffee we travelled the return journey in order to drive up to Scotland this afternoon. Little did we know that we had a ‘star pooch’ with us. On the boat journey back we were joined by a coach load of visitors from India who absolutely fell in love with Ruby. She was photographed , videoed and stroked for most of the 40 min journey back – we wont be surprised if she becomes an Instagram star overnight…..bless her. After a quick lunch we drive through torrential rain to a CCC site right on the edge of Moffat before we head up to the Mid Highlands tomorrow.
