Bowness

It proved to be a very wet Easter Sunday when I took this set of images on 6th April. It was a case of sheltering from the rain as much as possible, although I did get seriously wet. It didn't stop the ships of Windermere though, as 'Tern' calls at Bowness Pier. 
This swan requested that a photograph should be taken. 
In view of the inclement weather, there were few takers for hiring rowing boats. 


Despite the rain the lad on the right has just bought an ice cream. 
The booking office at Bowness Pier. 
No performers? I had been practicing for weeks! 


Yet more swans. There seems to be more of them at Bowness this year. 

I doubt if Mr. Whippy attracted too much custom whilst the rain continued to fall.


This is a very misleading sign for the unwary as Reays are not operating bus services in Bowness to and from Keswick this year. The board has obviously been forgotten about since last summer.
