We heard its a must to try the pasty and the buns in Bath so the first shop we checked out was the bakery. We were only able try the pasty tho 'cause we wanted to explore the town and thought sitting over lunch was a waste of time. We had our traditional pasty and hot mocha for take-away and started walking around. A few minutes in and several struggles to take pictures and eat at the same time, and we ended up sitting on a bench in the corner to finish our food. Di pala kaya, lol
When we got to the city center, we were welcomed by the rustic Abbey Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul and a lady singing an opera classic in the plaza. I only dreamed of this. When I was younger, I would see in the movies breathtaking castles and abbeys of Europe and there would be a singer in the background belting Pavarotti or Leo Delibes while the damsel walks the plaza. Yesterday, I was that damsel. Its the first time I've experienced this and I felt like one of my dreams just came true. 💗
The Roman Bath was extremely stunning. Its amazing how they were able to preserve the historic and spiritual site. It felt like I stepped into the ancient times when I got to the spring. It is believed that the Bath Waters have a healing effect so I got myself a bottle. Not to drink tho, just for display.
It was also very nice to see the Pultney Bridge, the spot Javert from the Les Miserables movie jumped to his death. Can't blame Jimmy Choo, Johnny Depp, Nicolas Cage and Jane Austen for choosing this place to be their home.
