A stand off with cows
What a better way to start the day but in the hotel gym with Ali looking like a hamster that just woke up. Breakfast was the toughest task yet, hotel breakfasts are usually taken in courses. The bread and cheese first, then the cooked breakfast, then the croissants and muffins but not this time, a plate of bacon for me.
We were told about the snake pass over the peak district and it didn't disappoint. We arrived at Derwent water, last visited when I was in sixth form. We took a walk in the rain, until we were stopped in our path but a group of cows with calves. We took a few steps back thinking they would move...but no. After good half and hour, we were still there, the cows were still there making a loud grunting noise at us. What I don't think helped was the bright rainbow umbrella.
Back on the scenic drive trips and Leek for lunch, alas we didn't eat leeks but we did eat sat in the car at Tittesworth lake. Back to the hotel for a rest, a soak and a gorgeous meal in the high ceilinged restuarant...and it was still raining.
