Bath, England


Ok, so I decided that it actually was easiest if I just put my short journal entry as my blog post so that I can keep everyone updated but not spend too much of my time here on my computer instead of sightseeing and other stuff around town. So here's the latest update:

Took a day trip to Bath, a smaller town towards the West of England. We took the train from Paddington station and it took about 90 minutes to get there. Toured the ancient Roman baths in the city and saw the beautiful Abby there. It was very cool to see it all, especially the baths that were over 2,000 years old! We then spent the rest of the day walking around the town shopping and looking at souvenirs. The weather wasn’t great (raining off and on the whole day), but we expected nothing else of English weather haha. I tried a Cornish chicken and veg pasty for lunch and had a pear puff pastry later. It was all delicious! After a long day of shopping we took the train home, but unfortunately missed out transfer stop for Paddington station so had to take the long way back going through Salisbury and ending up in Waterloo which is on the opposite side of London. It all worked out but was a bit longer of a trip that we would have liked haha. When we got back we just decided to eat dinner here and are now just relaxing after a very tiring day. The plan is to hopefully work on some homework the rest of the evening and possibly check out what’s on British TV.
