Sarah in London: Stonehenge and Bath!

So now that all the travels outside the UK are over, it's time to explore more of England and make the most of these last few weeks. Yesterday we had a trip to Stonehenge and Bath which was super fun! Stonehenge was interesting...it's the middle of absolutely nowhere and the area is abundant with sheep. I wish I could give you more information, but the audio guide was awfully boring so I turned it off. But basically, a very long time ago some very innovative people took some very heavy stones and placed them at what is now Stonehenge, and no one knows why they put the stones there/what they used them for, or how they could possibly have moved such heavy rocks.

Next stop: Bath, a quaint little town three hours away from London. Of course we got to see the Roman baths which have been there for sooooo long, which was really cool. But, even more important in my opinion, Bath is where JANE AUSTEN used to live at one point!!! I walked by the house she lived in, and right down the street from there is the Jane Austen Center, which is like a Jane Austen museum and therefore amazing. :) My friend and I had afternoon tea at the Jane Austen Center tea room where all the waitresses were dressed in Victorian costumes, so fun!! We were in such a Jane Austen mood after that visit that when we got back to the dorm last night we watched Sense and Sensibility. Love that movie! And I'm currently reading Emma, since now that Anna Karenina's over I can actually just read for pleasure.

Little town of Bath :)

Piece of one of the main parts of a Roman temple...I remember the description saying something about how this was really unique because it combined Celtic and Classical designs.
