Bath or Bust

Monday we went on a wild ride to the city of Bath in England. This is where the Roman Baths are that are made from the natural spring and still flow hot and steamy today. This place was also were Jane Austin lived and wrote several of her books. We had a great time, wish we had a little more time there the shopping was great and the town was beautiful. It only rained off and on during the day, only lost one side view mirror heading out of town and I of course got bad stomach issues when we were heading home.
 The Abby in town.

Top view, it was a bank holiday so things closed early this day and it took us longer to drive out there than we though (that was the theme for the whole trip) so we did not get to go inside the baths. Hopefully mom and dad can go back out and check it out.
A little street entertainment
