Bath Bath Bath Bath
So I also managed to get out there and hit Bath finally. Not since my days as a wee Luco following Mum and Dad and their Griswalds European Vacation back in the mid 80s had I ventured to Bath. To be honest, I don't remember too much of it from back then but visiting this time in splendid spring weather was truly beautiful. I managed to wing a nice little convertible to take advantage of the glorious weather and hit the road with the roof down (and umbrella ready -u thought Melbourne weather was unpredictable! yikes) and fanged it to Bath, well, just on the brink of bath.
Bath of course has its major attraction being the old Roman baths, which funnily enough aren't so old with seemingly everyone restoring them to some shape or form over the centuries to the point where there aint much original bath left, mostly early twentieth century remakes. Anyways, they are very interesting and have interesting stories behind how they fitted in to old Roman society when the Romans had settled the motherland.
I tried to mould into the surroundings as best I could to feel like it may have been in old Roman times (see above) and truly discovered why it is the Romans wanted to present their culture to the local english hooligans. Altogether, a fantastic short trip, with fantastic spring weather, and fantastic sports driving on the speedy motorways!
