Bath - awesome!!

We are on the train today.  2nd cousin Emma cleverly recommended this following our experience yesterday.  Dunc gave us a lift to Taunton Station and made sure we safely on the train.  What took us over 1 hour by car took 1/2 hour today!!  Bath city is an amazing Roman city, however there are no signs to tell you where you are or how to get to points of interest.  Hence we had to keep asking, apparantly the reason for no signs is to keep the authenticity of the heritage city - they are renovating madly and building new facades on all the shops with the local sandstone, and in the roman style -brilliant.  Our pics will not do it justice - shame, but I have a badge!!  We did a topless bus tour and then into the famous baths and pump rooms wow 17 AD!!  Walked the narrow streets, again people everywhere.  We have the Bath Abbey in the background, very impressive but no time for a look inside.  Doing this blog onthe train, very convenient as we will make the most of our last night with Linda and Dunc.  We leave for Chester in the morning via Cardiff and hope to see the castle.  Bye for now, here come the photos.
