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.

After breakfast, Jen and I took Kendra & Abigail over to the Village for a ...

... those of you back in Brissie will see the funny side of this! Wish I was there to see the end result!
Bath itself is a very beautiful little city. And it is best seen by just walking and wandering through the town - I saw the 'long curvy building' and the 'buildings in a circle with a tree in the middle' lol. There is a nice cultural feel going on in the town centre with a few cafes and nice shops here and there. Apparently they have introduced a scheme ...
