Stonehenge

We're leaving pretty Cornwall behind today and heading up towards Wales to collect our narrow boat. But first we want to visit Stonehenge and Bath. About a two hour drive to Stonehenge but it was worth it. Natured turned on a lovely day for us and it looks very majestic out there in the field by itself. Well apart from the 200 people surrounding it. We took the iconic photos and had a look in the museum and the Neolithic display which was really good, mostly because they had people in the hunts explaining what everything was, makes all the difference.

Then on to Bath, only an hour away but back in the city traffic. Having a car in the city is not an advantage! Finally we found a car park and then the Roman Baths. They are pretty amazing and the British Heritage have done a lot of work. We tagged on to a free tour of the baths which was amusing and very informative!

Oh course after reading all those Georgette Heyer Novels ( I loved those books )I had to have a look in The Pump Room and see the famous Spring. It's a fancy restaurant now and after missing lunch it all looked pretty appetising so we stayed for high tea. Oh my it was delicious and now we don't need any dinner either which is just as well as cheap it wasn't!

Getting out of Bath was even more painful then getting in but in the end we made it to Keysham about 10 kms out of Bath. Booked into a hotel here for the night. Feet up for a few hours.Leia mais
