BATH
Bath was quite the quaint little city! Rather hilly on the way in, and so, so beautiful! As we made our way to the Roman baths, our tour guide (actually a native of Bath) pointed out the flat of Nicolas Cage, and also informed us that Johnny Depp had residence in Bath, as well as Jane Seymour. The best way to fathom the city of Bath (pronounced "Baaawth") is to think Jane Austen. Yep, you got it now don't you...
There it is from my very own camera! A lot of people told me they weren't really impressed by Stonehenge because they were just these puny little stones stacked on top of each other... much smaller than expected. Well I beg to differ! I thought Stonehenge was incredible, and well worth the trip!
I just couldn't resist wading in the water...

And there's my head as proof that I was in fact there...
SALISBURY CATHEDRAL
Ok, just take a look at this!!! One word: INCROYABLE!!! I mean, those of you who know me know that I have an obsession with cathedrals. It started when I was living in Paris, France, and it just hasn't gone away! The intricate architecture of cathedrals is absolutely awe-inspiring! This was by far my favourite part of the trip. Just feast your eyes on the beauty...
A bit of the exterior for you. Salisbury Cathedral supposedly has the tallest steeple of all cathedrals in Europe!
It also has one of the largest cloisters I have ever seen. You can get an idea of just how big it is by looking at how short we look standing in one of the many archways that surround the cloister.
Well, it was a lovely trip, and I would highly recommend it to anyone spending an extended period of time in England. More of my travels to come! Love you all! x
