Stonehenge and Bath



Today, I woke up bright and early and went on a tour of a couple attractions outside of London.  First stop of the trip was Stonehenge, where we spent about an hour walking around the perimeter of the World Heritage site while listening to the audio guide.  I found Stonehenge to be interesting but slightly disappointing.  We then went further into the British countryside and visited the town of Bath.  Bath is so named because it housed a Roman Bath known for its healing waters (of which I drank a glass of).  The architecture of the city was very interesting as well (every building was made from the local, golden-colored Bath Stone and the style was predominately Georgian).
