Bath 1-8-10

WE stood in line with hoards of people waiting to view the Roman Baths. As we had both been before we left this rabble and headed for a quiet birthday lunch for Brenda!! Quiet is hard in Bath where tourists abound!! But we found a little corner and enjoyed ourselves!!

We both loved the Assembly Rooms where Jane Austin frequented. It spoke of days past bygone eras. The chandelliers were sparkling everywhere and one could imagine beautiful music floating from a stringed Quartet playing in a special area above the ballroom. There is   aCostume museum with beautiful old gowns--I collected a few postcards to show my girls these beautiful gowns.

We then went on a walk with our guide to the Royal Circle and Royal Cresent to view the beautiful houses of bygone days---Angelina and Brad have a house here and elton John and Jonny Depp!!! Nice little pads!!

Going home was not good as we ended up in peak hour traffic heading for London---Sunday night so we didnt get back till 7.30pm. Couldnt believe so many people were out and about shops open and people sittting in parks enjoying the humid sultry evening of london!! A lovely birthday for Brenda!!
