Tim and I checked out the old Roman spa town of Bath in west England last Saturday in Sunday. It was a really nice stay. Some notable points:
* great local pub - The Rising Sun. Tried Twiglets for the first time - weird marmite-flavored nobbly baked stick thingies.
* Wall quote: Sticks and stones may break my bones but whips and chains excite me.
* wonderful accommodation at the Villa Magdala B&B
* blue skies and very very cold
* saw the ruins of the Roman baths — hot springs are cool
* Indian food is good but “too much” sometimes
* hills and views everywhere!
* cool Georgian architecture - so white and clean!
* best veggie food EVAH at Demuth’s
* Tim beat me at Scrabble: 273 to 261
* two wonderful exhibits at the Victoria Art Gallery: David Cox’s Stories and Ana Maria Pacheco’s Some Exercise of Power.
* back home, I had my Scrabble revenge, kicked Tim’s ass 332 to 216.
* don’t forget to look at my pictures!
