Title: Westonbirt, NT Stourhead and Sydney Gardens
Post by: Panthera on October 31, 2012, 11:03:15 am
I had a few days beak with my parents last week in and around Bath.  We went to Lacock (spoken like Laycock), National Trust Stourhead, Westonbirt Arboretum and of course Bath - what a place.   We saw lots of autumn colour and the camera was on over drive....

Stourhead

Bath, Sydney Gardens.
This train trip was from London Victoria to Bristol with an excursion around SS Great Britian Return for, wait for it, £495pp. There was extras like, caviar at £75 a portion. 

Anyway, my dad saw a photograph in one of the railway mags and saw a shot taken in Sydney Gardens which looked great, so we have to try it.

We could not go to Bath without going to the Royal Crescent,

Had a fab time, enjoyed the break, saw my god mother who I had not seen in about 10 years.

Great pics!  :notworthy: Third pic at Stourhead is my favourite.

Spent my childhood in Lacock, annoying the gamekeeper at the Abbey and really annoying the Peacocks!!  :evilgrin:
