We explored the city of Bath on Friday.
Here are some slightly frightening sculptures, the minotaur and she-rabbit.
This is from the Roman Baths. There were statues of several prominent Romans, including my buddy JC. But I have chosen to share with you the statue of Suetonius Paulinus, because he was the governor of Britain during the Boudicean revolt.
This is water flowing into the Roman Baths.
We also saw a street performer who was pretty entertaining, and ate lunch at the Pump House, the restaurant attached to the Roman Baths. And we tried the water. Warm and sulfurous. Before moving on to the next city we visited the William Herschel Museum. William and his sister Caroline were astronomers. He built much stronger telescopes than previously existed and discovered the planet Uranus. Caroline discovered several comets.
