and a postcard. Isn't it lovely? You can travel to the Lake District by train or coach from London. I think you should take the train, as you have very little time and it's much quicker and very comfortable. We can easily take you to the station and pick up you up when you return. As for places to stay, I think, you ought to try a Youth Hostel. They're quite cheap and good places for meeting people. You sleep in single beds but you share a room. The Lake District was the home of the famous poet William Wordsworth, who spent most of his life there. It's a wonderful place for walking. There's also a very interesting museum about lakeland life and industry. The whole area gets very crowded in summer with people coming to visit the lakes and the poet's home, so, perhaps, the best thing to do would be to travel on a Friday morning and come back on Monday or Tuesday to avoid the weekend rush. The weather's sometimes warm and sunny but unfortunately, it's often very wet, so bring light waterproof clothing and it might be an idea to buy an umbrella! I hope this helps. We're looking forward to meeting you. Best wishes Sally Murgo
