The Last Night

Well, its our last night in London, but not the last blog entry. I still have plenty of pictures to sort through and post from today too, not to mention other days, and maybe some more photosynths.

I'm going to blog backwards chronologically today. This is the city of Bath, which is known for being the one and only hot spring in England. The Roman Baths were build here by the Romans, and the magical waters apparently helped get a queen pregnant.
The water is pretty nasty looking, but back in the Roman days, there was a roof over the main bath, so there wouldn't have been any algae growing in it. It would have been a pristine pool of 80 degree water five feet deep.

When we went, it rained! I think its rained pretty much every day we've been in London, on and off. I love it!

Our first stop before Bath, however was Stonehenge. My 900 picture photosynth of Stonehenge didn't work, and it probably won't work, since I ran out of memory the second time around. So I'll have to be more selective of the pictures I use in it to make the 360 around Stonehenge.

Today we went to the Tower of London to see the crown jewels, and to the Tate museum of modern art, to see some mind-numbingly good art. Unfortunately no photos are allowed in the Tate, so I'll just relate to you the highlights: a Calder Mobile that was tiny, one of the first ones he made, a few Picassos, Kandinskys, a whole room of Warhol, a giant table and chairs that I could stand under..... I know what my cats feel like now, and so much more. Some of the most fun I've had in an art museum in a long time.

Tomorrow we leave early in the morning, we'll be landing around 3 in the afternoon pacific time, which means it'll feel like its 8pm for us.... or something like that. So this will be the last blog for awhile, but not the last blog. so keep checking, and I'll keep posting. At least two more I think.

Cheers!
