Bath or Shower

Bath is this great little city that I don't think a huge amount of people know about.  Well, they do get loads of tourists.  But there's only about 90,000 people who live here.  However, they have one of the coolest things I've ever seen:  The Roman Baths.  The Romans were here over 2,000 years ago and discovered a natural hot spring that they thought would bring healing powers.  So they built this huge temple and bath surrounding it, which was discovered  underground about 200 years ago.  Now you can go down and see it - and even taste some!  I did, and it's not that great.  But you have to do it.  You know, when in Rome, or Bath, drink 10,000 year old water.

It has rained and snowed several times while I'm here.  Apparently an anomaly.  I was out for a comedy tour last night around town, and it started snowing on me.  I never got the memo- Iw as the only person without a hat or hood.  Today I went to the thermal spa here.  Spent 2hrs just relaxing.  

Again, the picture upload is down.  Bugger.  Oh well.  Just imagine a beautiful town made out ofLimestone.

Snow... I didn't see anything in that backpack for snow. Try not to freeze.
