Sauntering Vaguely Downward

Yes, I’ve managed it! The final mammoth photo post installment of our August summer holiday, which is about our trip on the beautifully restored Victorian Steam Yacht Gondola. We stayed in a tipi at the youth hostel not far from the gondola’s launch onto Coniston Water, and so we headed out early one very wet morning to catch it on its first trip out onto the water that day.


Steam Yacht Gondola in dock. Note this was taken after we had our ride, as we were concentrating on keeping the children from jumping gleefully off the pier in pursuit of ducks when we were boarding.
