Hi Everyone!
Today I'm in my favorite city in England, Bath.
Bath flourished during the Georgian and Regency periods, and the architecture of the city reflects the Georgian influence, most famously in the royal crescent.
This morning I went on a tower tour of Bath Abbey.
I got to go up in the clock tower and the bell tower.
And because I'm really lucky, I got to ring a bell! (Sorry that picture is blurry, but I didn't take it.)
I had lunch at the Roman Baths where I got to drink the natural hot springs water that was rumored to have healing properties. It tastes rather metallic.
I spent the first part of the afternoon at the fashion museum. I really enjoyed their exhibit of Georgian clothing. All the clothing was actually worn, and not a reproduction.
I spent the rest of my afternoon at the Thermae Bath Spa, the modern equivalent of the Roman Baths. They have a heated rooftop pool with an view of Bath Abbey. It was fun, but rather crowded, so it wasn't as relaxing as I had hoped.
This evening I went on the Bizarre Bath comedy walk. Its a fun blend of stand up comedy and slight of hand magic while you walk around the city.
I've included a picture of my favorite bridge in Bath.
