Onward to Bath!!!!
We mucked around London before heading to Bath today. We took the cheap alternative- the bus. I love the city of Bath. Its not tooo touristy, and retains a bit of its Roman influance. The Roman baths are able to be viewed, and the city just has an acient atmosphere to it. Our hostel was about 15 min walk out of the city. I stayed here last time I was in Bath, and knew it was a good one, despite the walk. It it situated at the top of a hill overlooking the city. The sun sets over the town and the hills in the distance, making for an awesome evening. The walk to the hostel is nothing short of impressive either. Along the way, we passed over a river, canal, where there were a series of working locks and canal boats. They are awesome to look at just in themselves. Then up a narrow trail passing several residential neighborhoods. Lastly is a huge open field the opens up into hte entire valley of bath. This is a jaw dropping moment just to see the cathedral tops, the baths, and the river in the valley. Overall the walk itself is a scenic journey..
