More Jane Austen Festival

If you remember, I left off last time having recounted our Sunday activities, so

We woke up bright and early to get dressed for our first engagement at 10 am - a dip in the Cross Bath. We were meeting up with several friends at the baths and then had invited them back to our apartments afterwards for a breakfast. We donned our bathing dresses and added hats and coats for the walk around the corner to the baths. ( the Cross Bath is an original Georgian bath that is attached to the new Thermae Bath Spa complex, we were so lucky to be able to organise such a fantastic opportunity to bathe in the hot spa waters, in a historically accurate fashion in a lovely historic setting! It was a highlight of the whole week!)


The assembled company.


The first intrepid fellow to sample the waters (they were actually heavenly! so warm and relaxing!)


A selection of aquatic gentlemen.


Calum and me, modelling our delightful bathing dresses, about to take the plunge :)


More lovely bathing dresses ;)


It must have been a shocking place for flirts!!


It may look like a glass of champagne, but I assure you it was plastic, and apple juice ;)



I was hoping to post the rest of Monday's shenanigans for you, but my lunch break was just not long enough! more later hopefully!
