Public transport did us proud today and we were safely delivered at Ravenglass at 2:30pm, although the train from Manchester to Carlisle was very overcrowded, we had seats booked and so were quite comfortable, which was good.
A quick visit to the Irish Sea, and we were on our way. The North of England Way route goes around Muncaster Castle, which we visited last year on holiday so we didn't call in, but headed straight over Muncaster Fell and into Eskdale Green to our first night stop at the lovely Bowerhouse Inn. Socks washed, we are now in the bar enjoying a nice pint of Pedigree (me) and Keswick Brewery's Thirst Blossom (Rob - being a slightly more adventurous beer drinker than me.)
