HOLIDAYS. TRAVELLING BY AIR

93

Things went on like this several days. The Robinsons couldn’t stand the food; the disco kept them awake at night; the walk to the beach seemed to get longer and longer. After four sleepless nights they flew back to En­gland, and they spent the second week of their holiday sitting out in the garden. It wasn’t as hot as the Costa del Sol, but they found it a lot more relaxing.

a place. Why? Why not?

The Lake District became a National Park in 1951, and with an area of almost 2,330 sq km it is the largest in England and Wales. More picturesque and diverse scenery can be found here than in any comparable area of Britain.

Within 48 km one may range from the harsh crags of the mountains, to the fertile lowland valleys, from the calm depths of great lakes to the roaring brown torrents of mountain rivers in flood.

For the lover of outdoor life, the Lake District has almost everything. The camper, the artist, the pony trekker, the yachtsman, the fisherman, the natu­ralist - Lakeland caters for them all. Some come for the quiet delights of trout fishing. Others revel in the kaleidoscope of colour and noise which is a Lake­land sports meeting.

The peaks and the spread of blue water in the Lake District inspired many famous Romantic authors. Make your own memories, on foot if you can, in early summer, when the days are long, the clouds are high and the hills are free. Perhaps when you will say of Lakeland, as William Wordsworth wrote of •the area, that it is “the loveliest spot that man hath ever found.”
