The last part of this week's adventure was a day trip out to see Stonehenge and Bath! The trip was apart of a groupon deal that included the bus ride there and back, entry into Stonehenge, and a private tour guide. We left central London early yesterday morning and began our journey. The drive out to Stonehenge was a little over an hour and a half and our private tour guide told us countless information on the way there.
The actual experience of Stonehenge was indescribable! It still doesn't feel like it really happen! However, even though the experience was incredible it was BEYOND freezing! The open field surrounding Stonehenge made it extremely windy, but I would do it all over again!
Just a quick hour away from Stonehenge was the city of Bath. Bath was built up by the ancient Roman Empire. Its architecture was absolutely gorgeous! It was built along a hillside and the river Avon (sidenote: there are multiple rivers in England called Avon because it is the anglo-saxon word for river). The city is also the home to a set of Roman Baths, which still uses the same piping that the Romans put in centuries ago! We spent most of the time there walking around and eating!
