This morning I woke up to more rain. Drat. By the time I had finished breakfast though, the rains had stopped and the skies began to brighten a bit. I rambled a bit through the Cotswold Hills before setting my bearings to the southwest again towards the Roman era town of Bath. Leaving Bath, I took one of my many wrong turns and ended up getting lost a bit but, no worries. After an hour I was back on the way to the West Country.
Entering the county of Somerset, I had been dodging and weaving between rain clouds all day. I was fortunate only to have been sprinkled on for about 15 minutes. I love it when the weather is threatening yet, somehow you manage to get lucky and dance around it. Approaching the town of Minehead, I caught my first glimpse of the ocean…or rather, the Bristol Channel. I could just make out Wales on the other side. I got lucky and found a lovely hotel that was formerly a hunting Lodge. Very friendly staff and they speak the same language…sorta
