Day 4 - Seatoller to Easedale

Damn, the weather forcast was wrong.  It's drizzling and there will be no chance to dry either boots or clothing today.  We pack down the tent, leave our gear for the pack carrying company to pick up, then walk back to the next village to get breakfast.  Then off for a six hour walk across sodden boggy hills in the drizzle.  Don't get me wrong, they look great, it's just that they are also a boggy abyss.  Who would have guessed that the Lake Districts would be so wet?

"In England's green and soggy land..."

Lunch in the lee of another rock, then on across the hill tops, again encountering a staggering number of Brits who seem to be out for walks on mountains, in the rain, with inadequate clothing, and evening settling in.  It is beyond us how they avoid gettng into trouble.

We stay in a very pleasant B&B, and hang our sodden gear over every fitting in our tiny room.
