Lake District (Mhari)

I would like to inform you all that even though I didn’t go near Italy; yesterday I did see the ruins of a Roman bathhouse in the Lake District, in England. There wasn’t much left, though some parts were surprisingly well preserved.  I thought there would be signs telling you to stay off the ruins, but all there was was a sign saying not to climb on them because you could get badly hurt. Sadly, Sam did not get to see the ruins because he went off on a hike with my parents, while I spent the day seeing things with my grandparents.  We went to a very small town called Ravenglass, which used to be an important Roman port. It was near the farm where we are staying. The baths were outside the Glannavantra fort located on the cliffs outside the town.  I found the fact that the baths were out of the fort quite interesting because there were, no other buildings outside the fort. The bathhouse ruins were a half-mile walk from the town.

Today, we went to the Sunkenkirk Stone Circle from the Neolithic period, which my dad tells me, is Stone Age type time. The stone circle was in a field of cows, bulls and tourists. It is also known as Swinside Stone Circle.

We are communicating.

Later, we went to Ulverston and walked around aimlessly.
For dinner, we had pasta salad and leftovers. We all agree that the small trailer we are staying in needs a bigger pot but, I must say that 6 people, 4 of them adults, are a large group, not the usual number of people for a place of this size. For dessert, we had blackberry crumble with custard and Cadbury roses. The roses we picked up at Cadbury world, which I recommend you visit if you are in England. The blackberries we picked at the park in Broughton-in-Furness.

P.S. Cadbury World is in Birmingham, look it up on the Internet. J!!J!!J!!J!!J!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.P.S.I must tell you that we were just having supper and my dad asked me to get him the hot sauce he had bought. The sauce had a flip lid but he twisted the big cap and when he started shaking it so it would drip out faster but instead it poured out onto his potato a lot. He called them patatas bravas and ate them any way.  Bye.

P.P.S. don’t Mind my bad spelling.
P.P.P.S. I will have some pictures of the ruins but they are on my grandparent's camera and I will have to wait a few day's before postable.
