Kendal – 23 July 2024

Today we drove to Kendal.

It was a drive with lots of hills and inclines. Scamp remember the K Shop and we went looking for it. We saw signs for it, but the actual site seemed to have been demolished some time ago. Finally worked our way round the one-way system and found a multi-storey to park in. Parked on level 6 which was on the roof and had a great panoramic view over to the hills. That made PoD.

Found a wee coffee shop, an independent, and had coffee and lunch there. We also found a South American restaurant we’d been in many years ago, but, like a lot of the shops and cafe’s it was closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. Kendal is a busy little town. I think I’d like to go back there some time.

Back home I went for a wander round Dent and took some photos of the church from the outside, and some of the river.

I was cooking tonight Venison Stew with Broccoli.

Memories:

  • The panorama from the car park
  • The alleyways that seemed to join streets
  • The hills we climbed to get there
  • The cobbled streets of Dent
  • Twee little houses
  • Lovely stonework

Tomorrow we may go to Kirkby Stephen.
