Today we went to Bath. We had a train at 9:03 out of London and got into Bath at about 10:40. The first thing that we did was to go to the Roman Bath. Amanda went through while I sat outside watching the bags. I decided not to go back in since it cost 10 pounds and we had our luggage with us. So I sat on a bench while Amanda went in. After she got done we found something to eat and then went and looked at the bridge that had shops on it and the river. After that we went on the free walking tour. The walking tour was nice for me because about haft what was said was new information for me, so that was nice. After the tour we went into the Bath Abbey, it is still one of my favorite cathedrals that I have been to. I found out that they cleaned the inside of it a few years ago so that was part of the reason why it was so clean and bright on the inside, also that over 60% of the walls were glass so that lets a lot of light into the cathedral. After the Abbey, we went and got some supper and then headed for the train station. We got on our first train which only lasted about 25 minutes, then we had to get on a bus to get to the next train. There must have been some track work going on because the bus ride was about 45 minutes. After the bus ride we got on another train to get the rest of the way to Swansea. When we go into Swansea we got a bus to the Quadrant Center and then the 82A bus up to the student village. When we got back to my flat, I gave Amanda the 3 minute tour it took to show her everything and we went to bed.
