Bath, at last!

Bath!  After rain , rain and storms and more locks than can surely be necessary, we moored  at the top of the final six locks and got our first view of this beautiful city. Even in the rain Bath is beautiful, stylish and elegant. Thank goodness for the 18th Century



Bath! Apres la pluie, la pluie, le tempete et une surabondance d'ecluses ( qui n'etaient pas tout a fait necessaire a mon avis! ) nous avons amarre avant les six derniers ecluses et, voila, notre premier vue de cette ville si elegant et si chic. Merci au dix-huitieme siecle!



The Roman Baths built between the first and fifth centuries A.D.
This is the main event but there are many more, including England's only natural hot spring around which the Baths were built.

Les Bains Romanes,construit entre le premier et le cinquieme siecles. Ici c'est le plus important mais il y a plusieurs d'autres,dont le seul d'eau source chaud en angleterre.


And now for afternoon tea in The Pump Rooms!





Et, maintenant, c'est l'heure de gouter au "Pump Rooms"!
