Great homemade by my cousin. Here is the thing about Asian food outside of London (it rarely exists in the traditional sense) No authethic shops, only the Chinese buffet with General tao chciken... o barf!
The rest of the day consistented of Driving 50miles towards Bath and experiencing the Roman Baths that have made the town of Bath, England famous.
Seeing as it was a holiday Monday (we should have expected more traffic than we were thinking. It was tough to get in, but the plan was to go to BATH, and then to go over to the Stonehenges.
The anicent roman bath is definitely the sight to see while in Bath. Admission was £10 (Student). Worth it for the experience. But not something Id do on a regular basis.
Here are some photos from my journey into the Baths.

Raising the floor to create a Sauna type room. Hottest at Bath.
After venturing through the Bath, we took the car and drove back towards home (and to stop by stonehenge) on the way. Due to traffic I didn't get to walk on the grounds, but you can't even get up close and personal anymore. Plus there is now an admissions fee to get in.... Bullocks!
Got as close as we could, as we just missed the cut off time to see the World Hertiage site. (second of the day)
The photo almost looks like I stole it off of the internet, but it's REAL. and I was that close (behind barriers and fences). Rumour has it that 5-10 years ago gypsies were sleeping under or in the stones and creating a nusiances, along with those that wanted to steal a piece of the stones. That is why there is a separate entrance and an admission fee to see the famous objects.
NEXT TIME.
Agenda for tmr: Winchester and shopping?
