Saturday 16 October - Ian and I decided to do some shopping in Bath. After a nice tour of our favorite shops we had a very delicious and hearty lunch at our new favorite Bath Restaurant Wild Cafe. After eating we still had lots of energy and decided to walk to Keynsham, the next stop down the train, heading toward Bristol. We thought this would be simple enough by following the canal path as we had done from Bradford on Avon to Bath. We roughed some heavy down pours but had a mostly enjoyable walk until we ended up on a road with no more public footpaths, no sign of the canal or any signs for Keynsham. We'd already been walking for about 3 hours and thought we must certainly be close. After asking a local couple we discovered our mistake. The kindly couple very generously offered to drive us to the station, which was much appreciated as it would soon be dark. We were dropped off at the station and duly made our way back to Bristol, much later than we had intended. It was a quick dinner before heading out for a pub crawl to celebrate Tom's birthday.
