Lake District


Last weekend we had a special guest, my friend's (Hamit's) brother. We always enjoy his visits since he is a very cheerful guy and make as all laugh and it's always fun to have him around.
On Saturday we decided to visit one of the most beautifully places in England, Lake District. This is an area, as the name suggest, with many lakes and wonderful site-seeings, simply a great place to visit.
Another reason for this short break was the fact that we were working on the last paper for the year and it was kind of like celebrating the end of the semester and the beginning of the
dissertation project , which will take all summer to accomplish.

Good thing about visiting Lake Districts that it's not very far away and it doesn't cost much and it's an amazing place, really great. The air was fresh, the weather was good, it rained a bit but it was not too bad.
When we arrived at the Windermere we decided to walk to the lake (At this place Windermere is the closest lake that one can visit, and possibly the biggest lake in the Lake District zone) instead of bus. Probably we should of taken the bus as it was a 20 min walk, it becomes boring when it's
too much!
Finally we were at the lake enjoying the beautiful view, we were hungry, eat sandwiches, little rest and there it was boat ride time!
So we took a boat ride across the lake, I loved it.
The water was so clear, I felt like jumping there a million times during the ride, it's a shame that it's usually too cold to swim in that water. It would of been fun.
Ohh well just enjoying those moments and breathing int that amazingly fresh air was enough.

Now that the Term is over everybody is leaving
the campus, most of my friends have left, some are still packing to leave on 6th of July when our contract of staying in campus expires and we do not want to renew it because it will be pretty depressing in the campus during the summer. In Monday I will be going to London stay there for two days then go and move in to the new apartment, so tomorrow I will be packing and I prepare for the next meeting that I have with my supervisor before leaving for London in Monday, I really have to 'produce' something by then :(
