Cotswold Way 2014 Day 8

Tuesday 5^th August 2018 Bath

It was raining when I started out and the rain came and went throughout the day. 

My socks got rather wet and I did wring them out at one point.  I guess this was before I learnt to keep a spare pair in my day pack.

Progress was very rapid until Bath came into sight and then it seemed to slow down.

Just entering Bath I discovered a fair going on where I purchased some candyfloss.

Way markers disappeared from that point on, but with guidebooks in hand I found my way to Bath Abbey, and the end of the Way.

I checked into the hostel, had a shower, then wandered the streets to purchase a new waterproof jacket, at £50.  After having dinner in the pub (that the hostel was part of) consisting of a burger, fries, salad and a cider, I wandered the streets of Bath again for a while before retiring for the night.

I don't normally take photos of the towns or cities I visit, as I find those kind of photos boring myself, but for some reason I made an exception in Bath.  If you want to see more of the beauties of Bath (and other views) check out my epilogue as I spend another day there.
