Bath

Finally visiting Bath!! I was supposed to go last November but several reasons delayed this trip.

SO last Saturday, Lola and myself took the train for Somerset. After all this disorganisation at the railway station, we arrived for lunchtime at last. We quickly ate our takeaway food and with the map in our hands walked along the river Avon. We stopped a moment to have a look at the Putney Bridge and we carried on our journey. Wandering in the charming streets of the city, we took some pictures of Bath Abbey and seeing many tourists queuing next to it we guessed the Roman Baths were here. We then went and checked the ticket prices. To be honest it was a bit annoying to pay £14 but you can't go to Bath without visiting the biggest attraction. It's like going to Paris without visiting le Louvre. As we were inside now, we decided ti visit it. Surprisingly, the £14 are completely worthy!! I thought it was just to see the baths but before that you have an interesting museum telling you more about the Roman times. 

Two hours later, we finished the Roman Baths and went on walking around looking for the Circus and Royal Crescent. Once we went to these two places that was it!! Bath is a small city that can be discovered in half a day. Indeed, this beautiful city is quite quick to visit. Of course you also have lots of attractions about the writer Jane Austen and I also heard Bath was a good place for pub crawl but we were not interested in it this day. 

I highly recommend you to give a try to Bath because even with a cloudy weather, the city looks really clean and charming.
