Yesterday we drove around the coast to Ravenglass. We took the longest route possible as I (Rob) got us lost. When we finally arrived we hiked up from Ravenglass to Eskdale Green, passing the ruins of an old Roman bath house - there used to be a big garrison and significant naval base at the Roman town of Glannaventa which is under all these fields - and then cruising through the gardens of the Muncaster Castle estate. We climbed up onto the higher ground of Muncaster Fell, stopping for lunch at the inappropriately named Hooker Crag (or at least we didn't see any). After a short stroll down into Eskdale Green, the highlight of the day arrived in the form of a mini steam engine which took us back to Ravenglass. On the way back home I got us lost again - which doesn't bode so well for crossing the Sahara.
