質問とコメント

I intend to post more photos and links, but it will have to wait until we're back in Austin. Like Japan, the phone service in England is charged by the minute. So it is very expensive to use the dial-up modem to the internet.

In the Lake District, we always stay in Elterwater, which is about 5 miles from Grasmere where the famous English poet, William Wordsworth, lived. Two other famous writers who lived in the Lake District are Arthur Ransome and Beatrix Potter.
