Lots of pictures to show today. We went back into Bath to see the Roman Bath Museum, walked and shopped and bought. Pictures will tell the story of our day. We had the most amazing breakfast at the Bed & Breakfast. It started with Hot chocolate, a little fruit and pastry roll. The breakfast was served with bacon, sausage, egg, tomatoes and mushrooms. After another cup of hot chocolate I was ready for the day. We thanked Tim and Jo for the wonderful time and walked from The Parsonage House to a nearby church called St. George's Church.
The day was overcast with clouds part of the day. Not a great day for pictures at St. Georges's Church.
These pictures were taken off the internet. I don't want to forget this place.
We decided to go see Nunney Castle on the way to Bath. It is not as big as some of the castles we have been to but interesting. Nunney. Castle was built 1370 by Sir John de la Mare. It was renovated in the late 1600's and used by the King during the Civil War and quickly fell by the Parliamentarian cannon in 1645.
We made it to the Park & Ride in Bath and enjoyed the day seeing the Roman Bath Museum and shopping and eating fudge and sharing a Bratwurst (sausage like a hot dog on a bun). We bought a few Christmas decorations for the flat. We had a lovely time with the Parkers. (Another word they use a lot of is brilliant! Especially if you thought of a great idea.)
It took two hours to walk all around and in and out of the Roman Bath Museum. There were many more baths for cleaning and soaking and steaming.
