Bradford and Bath


Sunday 4th July - Chris's daughter, Sarah was staying with us as she is stopping in England on her way back to the states from Africa. We decided to show her some of the quainter English sites, considering that Bristol is a city and lacks the loveliness of an English village. Our first stop was just outside Bradford on Avon. We walked along the canals where we saw lots of interesting canal boats some with flourishing gardens. We even came across a boat selling ice cream so to enjoy the novelty we stopped and bought some ice cream cones to eat as we meandered along. We showed Sarah all the sites in Bradford, especially the quaint gardens along the rows of weaver's cottages. After a thorough tour we made a quick stop in Bath for tea at Sally Lunn's and a few sites before returning to Bristol to start cooking and eating our 4th of July BBQ.
