Bath

Once again, we took a bus from Almondsbury to Bristol bus station. But this time, we took a second bus that went form Bristol, to BATH. Yes, Bath, England. Where Jane Austen lived for 5 years of her life. The city that inspired some of her novels and bits and pieces of others. The place I've been dreaming of going to for a very long time. 
I was finally there.
It was incredible. Unbelievable in the way that I wasn't really sure if I was there or not.





We found the Roman Baths as soon as we got there. It was pretty awe-inspiring! These baths have been here since the first century AD, and I was seeing them! We drank water from the Roman Baths, just for the experience. We weren't expecting it to be hot! And it was disgusting! It left the worst taste in our mouths! But the experience was the best! I don't regret it at all!
We walked around Bath a lot, just enjoying that we were there and loving what we were seeing!











I think my favorite part was the Jane Austen Centre. Everything about Jane Austen's time in Bath was there. We were able to see and touch outfits that she and the others of her time would have worn. We learned so much about her! The best part though, was the DRESS-UP. We got to put clothes on from that time!
