Roman Baths

Another favourite part of our trip was the Roman Baths.  Wow!  A few pics on the way to our next stop:

 

I snapped this one to show my youngest hairless cat Abby.  She really hates having a bath, so I thought this sign might inspire her.  Unfortunately, so far it hasn’t worked:

She told me that it didn’t mean anything to her because they spelled her name wrong.

The walk over to the Baths was quite impressive:

Angels climbing the ladder to Heaven:

This was kinda weird – our tour guide was given plastic tokens to give each of us when we were outside the door to the Baths.  As we walked throughthe door, we gave it back to the guy that gave them to her.

Here is the ceiling of the room where we were given some direction by the tour guide:

Entering the main area of the Baths was amazing:

I was going to do a cannonball off of the second level, but Jan requested that I didn’t embarrass her.

The artifacts inside were equally as impressive.  This fella kinda looks like me (pale and skinny):

Here is the 7947th pigeon I took a picture of during our trip.  Either that or the same one was following us:

After a closer look at the condition of the water, I’m kinda glad I didn’t jump in:

Stacks of stone which allowed heat to circulate under the floor, causing a sauna effect:

Jan and I each tossed in a coin for good luck:

Despite this being our last day, I still have quite a few more photos to share!

Today’s symptoms:  I slept in big time this morning – until 10:30!  I guess my body really needed the sleep.  The pain wasn’t quite as bad today as it was the last few days, which was a nice relief!
