Abstract

“But Aunty Tracy, I still need to see a real rabbit.” Words spoken to me by my five and a half year old nephew – and yes, the half matters with numbers, as he explained to the lady selling us tickets to cruise across Lake Windermere. We had spent the morning visiting the World of Beatrix Potter where we reread the story of Peter Rabbit, enjoyed a picnic lunch then the afternoon’s adventure was a boat trip around the Lake, waving to people on the other boats when we passed them. “Why don’t some people wave back Aunty Tracy?” “Perhaps they don’t see us”.
