Kendal to Levens Bridge. More Photos

From Kendal bus station, we made our way down to the riverside walk, and followed the flow of the river, as it made its way towards the Irish sea

We hadn't gone far, when we came across some unoccupied benches. They didn't remain unoccupied for long.

I make no comment, but will await your wry comments if this one appears as a caption photo.

Anthony's saying newt.

Still following the riverside path, it just gets better and better.

Emerging from a less attractive section of the river, that by-passed the water treatment works, we settled down for our scran.

Eagle eyed John made another find, which he announced he would be putting in his box of treasures that he had accumulated over the years.

No wonder he's looking so smug.... But no. the expression on his face is because he's got stuck.You really are going to have to go on a diet John.

What are they looking at?

One of the many narrow gorges through which the river has to squeeze as it races seaward.

We were in no particular hurry to keep up with it. Slow meandering rivers are more akin to our pace.

Wandering to close to the edge of these eroded rocky banks could
end up in disaster.

On the homeward stretch, as we enter levens deer park.

This sad looking vandalised old tree, looked like it was in need of a hug.

I think John would have liked to take it home with him.

As we neared the end of our walk, the threat of rain that had been with us since lunch time, was beginning to make good on it's threat.
The End
