Bath, England is fun and pretty. Boasting (really, really boasting) the only natural hot springs in England, it's been a spa town since Roman times. Thus the name. All of downtown is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and sports lots of fancy architecture; the Royal Crescent, the Circus, Pulteney Bridge. We learned a lot on the Mayor's Corps of Honorary Guides' free walking tour. Our guide was just the cutest old biddy, and an outrageously fast walker.
We drank pear and apple cider, ate great Indian food, and had four o'clock tea at the Pump House over the Baths; scones and clotted cream, chive and cream cheese sandwiches with the crusts cut off. We got in the pools (meh) and steam pods (rad) at the new Thermae Bath Spa, and may or may not have seen Keith Richards. Perhaps Bath's water is responsible for his longevity?

the perfect counterpoint; Bath and ldale revolving around water and other beverages.
