London & Paris - Day 2 Stonehenge & Bath

London & Paris - Day 2
Stonehenge and the town of Bath
The next morning, I woke up and got ready, went to have breakfast, and after we all went downstairs and waited for the tour bus. That day, we started off with a city tour of London; after we headed off to Stonehenge. Stonehenge is a UNESCO World Heritage site that is famous for its stories of how it was built. I walked around, and took a few pictures. After, I headed to the gift shop and bought this gorgeous sterling silver ring shaped like Stonehenge. I headed back to the bus and waited for my other tour mates.
After Stonehenge, we headed off to the town of Bath. On the way, Bri (my amazing tour guide) made up a fun game: it was like speed dating but we were getting to know each other one on one. It was very fun. We got to Bath and had time to discover the wonderful town. I was hungry, so me and Erin (a great friend from the trip),we wandered until we found a restaurant. We went inside ordered our food and headed to sit outside on a patio. We looked out at the traffic riding by and tourists walking around admiring shop windows. We ate and polished off plates before heading back toward Bath Abbey, to take a tour of the Roman Baths. The Roman Baths are known to have had a high level of pure minerals that could heal the ill, the hurt and wounded. Fun Fact: In the medieval times of England, baths were not taken regularly. The Queen would ride down to the Baths, every year or so, took her annual bath. After touring the facilities of the Roman Baths, it was time to go back to London. We headed back, got into some heavy traffic getting into the city, and it was about 6 or 7 pm when we came back to the hotel. I went to the pub in the hotel, had some comfort food, reviewed my picture I took throughout the day. I headed back to my room after dinner, planned my day for the next day, and headed to bed.
I really hope you enjoyed this post. Day 3 will be coming to you next Thursday.
