A smaller cabin kind of thing. One of the volunteers told me this had been built almost 100% by kids. A small frame in the middle started it all

Green Park Brasserie. We sat inside to hear the music but it is a lovely night and lot's of people are outside as you can see. One thing we have learned is that if there is hint of good weather, the Brits are outside and loving it.

This is the view from our stoop. As we will find out Bath is very hilly, you can see a lot of houses in the back right.

Fast food, not a grog shop in site. You can see Greggs, Smashburger and Burger King in the back. Not pictured is a McDonalds right on the left. I remember a time when Burger King first started it was real heavy on the "King" part. Lot's of Royal deals. I even have a friend who played the King in a couple of commercials.

This building was a former brewery, bombed by the Germans, bloody Huns, and then turned into a pub after the war. It's a restaurant now and the bus stops right here!

Pulteney Bridge. There are apparently four bridges that have shops and one time residences on them in Europe (according to our guide) Ponte Vecchio in Florence is one and some in Germany.

This is the Weir? Not sure if that is correct spelling, it can somehow control the water flow. It's really cool to look at.

End of the Royal Crescent, a long crescent shape of houses, 30 of them, completed in 1774. Now some have been broken into flats and there is an upscale hotel in the middle

The Royal Theater. Not sure about the whole story here, it might actually be the second Royal theater and there is a new one in the back, you can see the metal structure looming over it.

Jane Austen lived at this address. Unlike in Bridgerton, where it seems like people had a country house and a London digs, people came here for the season and rented lodgings. That might explain why there is a site where Jane Austen lived on every corner.

The Holburne Museum at the end of Pulteney Street. This Lady Danbury's house in Bridgerton. I have to say I was a fan of Bridgerton to see the styles and buildings and to try to imagine that time.

Sedan chair. A person would sit in here and be carried around by four strong dudes. It originally was for sick people, after the rich people saw these, they said "Hey, I'm feeling a little sick too!"

Out in front of the Royal Crescent. This picture does not do this scene justice. All of these students descend on the park, I believe for pictures. You can see some tuxes and dresses here. If I would have waited an hour, you would not have been able to see the grass because it was so covered with students.

In the middle you can see King Edgar, the first English king being crowned here in the Bath Abbot, Cathedral at the time. I think it was summer because if he had been crowned in January, he would have been known as King Edgar Winter
