From Bath we vistied the nearby village of Bradford on Avon and had a walk around the town and visited the Saxon church, the oldest church in England.

Back in Bath we went to Sally Lunn’s and had a famous Sally Lunn bun.  The buns are huge soft and very light. Made to a unique and secret recipe.  Sally Lunn's has been a bakery since about 1680 and the building itself dates back to the early 1400’s.

We visited beautiful Bath Abbey with it's beautiful stained glass windows and ornate ceiling.  We were lucky to time it when  there was a choir practising for a concert later that night so we sat and listened to them for a while.

We walked all over Bath, along the Avon River, through the parks and gardens, stopped and watched people in kayaks delibrately turning them upside down.  They had to try really hard to turn them upside down and they right themselves again almost instantaniously.  Our walk also took us to look at the Circus and Royal Crescent, the very expensive Georgian houses in cream coloured sandstone of Bath that form a 1/2 moon shape on either side of the road.  The Crescent looks out over a lush green lawn fenced and gated for the exclusive use of the residents.  One notable resident of the Crescent, was Isaac Pitman, the man who invented shorthand.
