We're All Mad Here: My Weekend in Bath
Hello! Sorry this is a day late but with getting back to London and watching the Super Bowl yesterday it was pretty hectic (but fun!) I had never been to Bath or the Stonehenge and they were both marvelous.
We stopped at Stonehenge on the way to Bath and even though it was chilly and raining, (like it always is) it was still so fun to see these mysterious structures that seem to have stood the test of time. We spent the perfect amount of time there allowing us to walk around the actual Stonehenge, check out the exhibition, and even grab lunch (btw I highly recommend the Stone Cake)
Once we arrived in Bath we took a walking tour with a guide. I loved walking around and seeing all of the amazing old buildings that still seemed to blend perfectly with some of the more modern architecture. There were times walking around when I felt like a Jane Austin heroine, and yes I did make some time to stop by the Jane Austen Centre. Also during our free time I stopped by this adorable Alice and Wonderland cafe. Since we had already eaten I just got tea to go but it was so fun to go inside and see all of the decor. Bath itself is pretty small which made it very easy to walk around and find everything (no public transportation needed!)
The next day we went to the Roman Baths, which was also amazing. It was so cool to see how this place had also stood the test of time, as well as to learn more about the history of the city. Right outside the Roman Baths was the Bath Abbey which was breathtaking, I could not stop staring in awe at it. Luckily we were able to step inside during their open hours and it was also beautiful on the inside. Overall I absolutely loved Bath. It was so quaint and all the stores and restaurants were also amazing and I definitely hope to go back some day.
Any Jane Austen or Alice in Wonderland fans out there? What would be your first stop in Bath? Let me know in the comments!
