Bristol to Bath

We arrived into Bristol and as expected we were missing a bag. From there we rented cars and as Stirling and I practiced driving on the wrong side of the car (and road) through the rental car parking lot, we discussed our route which would take us 13 miles to Bath.

After many wrong turns, repeated roundabouts, we finally realized we should be listening to "Helen" our GPS navigator, whou would successfully lead us to Paradise Manor atop a beautiful hill overlooking the city of Bath.

As it's name suggests, Bath is known for the ancient Roman Baths that are the only natural hot springs in the UK. We toured the city and then rested in the afternoon before walking having wine on the lawn and then walking into town for a lovely dinner at the Wife of Bath.

This is a picture of the beautiful Bath Abbey in the center of town. The Baths were closed, but we toured the city at night after dinner.

Were off to Cardiff today to have lunch with the Geensens and tour a new photovoltaic plant that John Geensen's new company has there.
