LAKE DISTRICT

Wordsworth and Daffodils. In October there are no daffodils by Grasmere Lake where Dorothy pointed out to her brother William that the flowers seem to dance. In the early morning when the winds are still, heather on the mountains above Rydel Water and Grasmere are almost as beautiful as daffodils. Clouds and high hills reflect in the perfect lake mirrors as they did when Wordsworth, Coleridge, and Byron walked beside them. This is timeless country that belongs to the ages, not just to Britain but to the world.
