The lovely town of Bath, sort of



I am not joking about needing a bath. I am not the best smelling of people on a good day.
We are a bit behind on blogs as we have been having trouble coordinating battery power and free internet.

We actually visited Bath ahwile ago but it was so awesome we thought a belated post was due.
The place is called Bath because it is centered around some old Roman bathing pools (I guess all roman things are old at this point). The Romans thought the natural spring was a gift from god (which kinda explains why their empire fell doesnt it) so they built this big temple and associated structure around it.

The Romans knew their engineering because all of the plumbing still works just fine and the the 44 degree water still fills the three bathing areas fed from lead pipes (maybe the real reason the empire fell).

We named the Van as well. We decided on the name Luna because it sounds nice and was the god that the whole Roman bath things was dedicated to. Glory was a runner up (yeah Joc) as was Piece of Shit when the fan belt snapped one weekend.

Okay thats it for now...promise to write more in the future.

Penalty?
I wonder what happens if you just fling off your garb and jump in? I mean, really - what are they going to do? I guess it's not very sanitary and all but it can't be any worse than, say, Beaver Lake.

I wouldnt bathe in there its probably full of crosside crocs, ghouls and boys and a michael jackson werewolf. do you you know why michael jackson died because his heart couldnt yknow beat it. put a drop of iodine in water bbefore using drinking or bathing it will help neutralize the bbacteria also lysol wipes are good for bathing cheers, jason the basin
