Bath, belated...

The day before we went to Longleat, we spent the day with my sister's family in the beautiful city of Bath. We had a good look around he incredible Roman baths that gave Bath it's name and are truly at the heart of the city.  It was a fantastic tour, although the handheld audio guides made it look like everyone was walking around with mobile phones attached to their head....

 Here are some of the photos I took at the baths...




Showing the extent of the Roman Empire and how far Bath (Aquae Sulis) is from Rome


After the baths, we had a look around some of the older parts of Bath - one of the lasting images we have of Bath is how even the new buildings look like they 'match' the older parts of the city.
