Chapter 82 - Bath, London, United Kingdom (Day 2)


Holla! In Day 2, we went to another part of London that is Bath. Known as one of the world heritage sites, I personally look forward to it. Probably, that was due to the drama exposure by "Triumph in the Skies 2" where Captain Cool, Captain Tong and Holiday had wonderful moments in Bath

So, here's my journal in Day 2, London.
Enjoy reading :)
Woke up at 6am in London! Once I freshened up, I headed to the hotel's lobby. Woah-la! It was quiet yet cold along the street of London. So peace and calm...That's life...
 Breakfast in the hotel
It took us about 2 hours and 45 minutes to reach Bath. By that time we reached, it was already lunch time hence, we stopped by at Green Park Brasserie.

 For lunch, we had mushroom soup, roast chicken and caramelized oranges - the oranges were really sweet but I didn't manage to take a shot of it - couldn't resist my temptation though
Buildings in Bath - it was brilliantly built and structured.
Oh ya, the buildings are not made by bricks but are made by limestone
As we strolled along the street, we stopped for a few seconds to take a wefie shot. 
Temperature on that day was quite cold too - if I remember correctly, it was at 6 to 7 degree Celcius
Our first official stop in Bath was at Royal Crescent! As we came out from the coach, we were welcomed by a sudden gust of cold wind.

Next, we went to The Circus.
It is an example of Georgian architecture where the "circus" means a ring, oval or a circle.
 A 2-seconds stop for a photo as we were walking to Roman Baths
Roman Baths which are built around thermal spring.
You can spend more time here to learn the lifestyle of Roman

After Roman Baths, we went to the magnificent Bath Abbey, an Anglican parish church and a former Benedictine monastery

By that time we completed our tour at Bath Abbey, it was already 430pm.
London gets dark at about 5pm so that means we had to leave to the city by then.
 See the amazing view of Bath, London
Traffic was really bad and we reached to the city at 830pm.
We finished all the food within minutes - it was either due to the nice food or we were just too hungry.

Lady luck was not with us on that day. As the coach operator cannot afford to be on the road for more than 12 hours, he left us behind. That said, we boarded the London tube back to the hotel and thankfully, it was super convenient. Initially, we thought of going to somewhere else but we were quite tired by the time we reached hotel hence, we called it off a day after refreshing ourselves.

After all, Day 3 would be another busy yet exciting day.
