Answer 2

Charlotte sees that both Mr Darcy and his cousin admire Elizabeth. -While the Colonel is very openly, Mr Darcy is relatively quiet. She thinks it will be a good thing if Lizzy could marry the Colonel but still better if she marries Mr Darcy.

-Elizabeth had set her hearts on going to the Lakes with the Gardiners but these plans are changed last minute. There is a delay in the start of the journey and it has to be shortened too, both because of Mr Gardiner's business. As such they can go no further than Derbyshire.
