Trying to catch the blog up with our life. Not doing a good job, so I am trying to at least wrap up our England trip. The last city we went to was Bath, England. People love Bath. I thought it was nice, it was definitely cold, just the very tall rows of stone building were a bit overbearing for me personally, but that is just me. We visited the Roman Bath, which was pretty cool, Joe really liked seeing it and how it was built.

Look at the pretty green water, at least it has healing powers. |

Joe at the Bath, don't fall in! |
|
Tasting the Bath water.... |
|
Not very good, eh? |
|
The city and of course a cathedral. |
During our time in Bath we went on an all day trip with Mad Max tours to Stonehenge, the Cotswolds, Lacock, and Avebury, it was really cool, probably one of the best days of the trip.

In the Cotswolds we went to the village of Castle Combe. It was so pretty, next visit I would love to see more villages.
And Castle Combe presents this charming scene,
of hill, woods and meadows cloth'd in green.
Here grand terrestrial scenes, almost celestial nice,
makes Castle Combe, sweet vale, an earthy Paradise.

A tomb of a Knight that was part of the crusades. |

Love the chair over the sign |

Look how short the doors are! |

That pretty much wraps up our England trip. It was so much fun, I loved it over there and hope we get to go back!
