My English Tour Part 3

---

Geo: 51.4587, -1.80397

Well the final part of the tour was at Bath City. The journey there took a nice drive through the English countryside. I never appreciated that there was so much open space in England. Meadows, and farmland as far as the eye can see. Eventually we reached Bath, which has a very different style to London. The buildings here are all a sexy mustard type colour.. and all very old. The main reason for coming here was to visit the Roman baths. A really unusual site built by the romans almost 2000 years ago. It was built above a spring, which was naturally heated by underground gases n such, n makes the water around 40C. There was heaps of roman relics and artifacts here to look at too, as well as Bath Abbey, another really impressive cathedral. this one i could take pictures of. Once again ill try with photos, but no promises, as none of these comps have my cam drivers 😞
I hope ill get another chance to update you all soon, but i dont know whats gonna happen once this contiki tour starts. Keep the comments coming 😊

An Indoor Bath
one of the undercover baths. this one was presumably ice cold, and used for the Romans to refresh themselves after soaking in one of the hot springs or saunas. the technology the romans had to heat the saunas was quite remarkable.

The Roman Baths
A shot of the Roman baths. This was a pretty cool area, inhabited by the Romans almost 2000 years ago. This area was of interest to them, because of the natural springs here. The water naturally heats up to 43C due to volcanic, underground occurances.
