At the end of this post is a bonus recipe for bread pudding.
A Day in Bath
Mentioned in many a Jane Austen novel, and famous on its own for its historic Roman Baths, the city of Bath in Somerset has much to do and see. In addition to the Roman Baths, we walked the Pulteney Bridge that spans the River Avon and, of course, we paid a visit to the Jane Austen Centre.

There are many great hikes along the Arroyo Seco's 22 miles; this post covers some of the lower trails.
