Bath - Day Two

Up earlyish and into the old town again.  We decided to make use of our City Sightseeing tickets and re-did the city tour, taking in once again the beauty of the Pulteney Bridge and of the Royal Crescent (designed by John Wood the Younger) and the Circus (designed by John Wood the Elder).  Both are fine examples of Georgian architecture and of Bath stone.   We then wandered back into town and did a little more shopping, before our High Tea in the Pump Room.

Bath was also in the middle of the Fringe Festival (altough it wasn't particularly well advertised), and we found a display of beautiful photographs by various photographers in the Octogon.  I particularly liked those by Susannah Critchley.



We then re-did the Skyline Tour, which is lovely, and then headed back to our B & B, before heading out for dinner at Jamie Oliver's Italian.
