Well friends--this morning Vi provided us with another wonderful breakfast and then we headed off to church with the Slaters. The Salvation Army parishioners were so inviting and kind--we had a very nice time. Mum and I were able to meet Elliot and Caitlin with a "C" whom Vi regularly watches. They were adorable!
After church we hurried home for a very traditional Sunday lunch of Roasted Beef and Yorkshire pudding. It was amazing! And then she brought in dessert! Trifle I believe it was--so yummy and similiar to my favorite orange creme icecream in taste.
With our stomach's full of wonderful food, mum and I begrudginly said goodbye to Keith and Vi so that we could see the rest of the UK and remain on schedule. We followed Keith to the M4 exit leading to Bath and waved goodbye.
I can say with much relief that I was actually able to take my eyes off the road while mum was driving today. The roads were so well marked and mum, with added confidence, was able to handle the road quite well. We arrived in Bath around 3:30 and checked into the once Italian Villa on Bathwick Hill now a YHA (Youth Hostel of America). It is more low-key compared to our London YHA accomodations, but will do for the night. I believe the bathrooms are co-ed, so I will not be taking a shower tonight thank you very much.
Tomorrow mum and I will check out the Jane Austen Museum on Gay Street, the Roman Baths, and our favorite, M&S!!!!
Ta Ta for now!
