Bath

Well, a couple of weekends ago we dragged ourselves out of bed on Saturday morning and headed off to the Georgian splendour of Bath. This was my second time in Bath, but it was Nick's first, and hence we took the tourist route: Royal Crescent, the Roman Baths, and the Abbey. It was a truly english day, we lunched in a pub, drinking real ale, we had devonshire tea, and we capped off the day watching rugby, where else but in a pub! We also explored an out of the way "arty" area of Bath, full of antique shops and galleries. Note that I took control of the camera for the day, so you can judge which of us is the better photographer!

Other than that, we've been living a reasonably quiet life. We made dinner for 6 friends last Saturday, which needless to say was a strain on both the space and crockery limitations of our apartment! But we did drink some "interesting" wine which I'm sure Nick will elaborate on more fully. And today, for the first time I've seen this winter, it snowed! Although it was a mixture of snow and rain, which is less than pleasant! We just can't wait for the weather to get better really. Bring on the Aussie summer!
