A lazy day after yesterday's hike.
We wander into Keswick from Portinscale, ready for the first launch to Lodore.
Truth be told, the 'first launch' is a bit late for us, but...

Our launch is called Lady DerwentWater - Woohoo! Cat Bells to the left, Rowling End & Causey to the right.
Off the launch at Lodore to start round the lake.

This path is ridiculous for the Lake District.
Indy can't believe how easy it is. Come on !

The launch in the background is irrelevant when there is a tennis ball to retrieve.
