Wells
This morning Graham and Christine (old family friends of the Eads) joined us for breakfast. It was a full house with Nicky, Ben and Abigail also staying. Poor Ben was all upset when he had to go off to school. Must have felt like he was missing out on all the fun. We headed over to Wells markets and wandered over to feed the ducks and swans in the moat. I never get tired of visiting Wells Cathedral. It's so pretty. It was freezing again today and I thought for sure ...

After breakfast, Jen and I took Kendra & Abigail over to the Village for a ...
Brilliant Bath
... spring is the only naturally hot, free flowing hot spring in all of England and it has been flowing since 3,000 B.C. The feeling once you get to the baths is amazing. In fact, I think my jaw was to the ground for the whole time I was there! To understand all of the history and everything there is to know about the town of Bath, and the baths themselves is just an exasperating feeling.
