Bath, England Day 6

The Royal Crescent

Having Lunch.

The Roman Bath.





We were in Bath yesterday. It was my favorite place that we visited from the last time I was here and it had not dimmed from memory. It was just gorgeous. We visited the Roman Baths that were originally built in 75 AD. It almost boggles the mind. We think things are old here when they were built in the 1800s! They were rediscoverd in the 1700s and brought back into popularity with the Victorians. Jane Austen referred to Bath in many of her books. We had lunch afterwards in an open courtyard with street performers (music) abounding. Some English and some from Barcelona. (Jed bought 2 of the performers C.D.s.) We then continued our way up North (with Cala driving!) to Birmingham to visit my Uncle Bob and Aunt Margaret.
