Cheltenham Day 8 - Bath Spa

Bath was lovely, brilliant . . . am I sounding British enough ??? Love trying to mimic their accent - not only the vowel sounds but the intonation. Quite catchy.

Must say Bath is charming - steeped in history with towering churches everywhere, lots of walking streets with high end stores, and the famous Roman Baths. Had to stop in there. Made us think perhaps we should have based ourselves there. I can see why Jamie loved it.

The pics say more than my words, but one highlight was finding an Anokhi store. It was my fav shop in India and it’s the first time I’ve seen one elsewhere. Turns out the owner is the brother of the lady who founded the shop in New Delhi. I basically hate shopping, but after chatting with him I couldn’t resist buying a hand printed kurta. So unique.

The trains worked quite well - some delays but overall absolutely fine. Only took an hour coming back.

Tomorrow we head to Newquay in Cornwall - should be whole new experience.Read more
