After leaving Aviemore in the last video we once again experience being stranded. This time in Ambleside in the Lake District. A major localised snow storm, brought the town of Ambleside and surrounding area to a standstill as traffic was unable to move due to the depth of the snow. We took an early decision to stay put where we enjoyed the snow, but struggled to get water from frozen pipes and ran out of gas in our attempts to stay warm in the van.

Despite the conditions, we managed to get laundry done and enjoyed a pub lunch before leaving early in the morning navigating past the many abandoned vehicles.

This is episode 102 in a series of videos cataloguing our post retirement adventures. We are Kath and Sue and we are travelling the UK with our two dogs Archie and Fudge and living full time in our Burstner Elegance Motorhome. We have given up conventional living for a new vanlife, enjoying the freedom of the road and plenty of time outdoors taking in the beautiful countryside the UK has to offer.
