Inbetween day and on the way to Bath!

Near West Kensington there is an open space and cemetry called Margravine Gardens.  Squirrels are tame and people stroll, sit for a bit of quiet, children play- lungs and a bit of wilderness in a density of population.  Here I am fascinated with tall and full trees of blossom and when the wind blows the blossoms collect along the edges of the pathways- delicate pink petals.  There is so much blossom around London streets and gardens. 
Beautiful.

Squirrels!

Today we caught the train from Paddington station to Bath- here are a few window shots.

We shared a table and window seats on a train with few passengers.

After Reading a nuclear power station.  We saw paddocks of canola, sheep and cattle.
Then booking into our  bed and breakfast and a walk around Bath- how big is it!  How many school groups, how many laneways and the architecture.  Tomorrow we will visit the Roman Baths.

 We had dinner at Sally Lunn's- oldest bakehouse in Bath c 1482. 
Plenty of jobs for kitchen/waiting staff in Bath- one establishment quoted 6 pound an hour...
Tomorrow- the Roman baths.
