In Bath, the four of us took another 88 pictures. It was a facinating place. The Romans built the baths and when they left the area the Pagans thought the water was cursed so never went there. Eventually it was covered over by dirt. As time went on the warm mineral water began bubbling to the surface again and the people of the time build a new spa. It started leaking and wouldn't hold water so they began digging down to repair it and found the original Roman Baths under neath.
