Bath Comments

On the trip from London to Trebetherick, we visited Bath.
Bath is the most complete and best preserved Georgian city in Britain. The spa was used by the Romans, and the remains of the Roman baths are still there to be seen today, beside the 18th century Pump Room.
Here we saw the first of many Cathedrals, the Roman Baths, and the Circus.


St. Moritz Hotel Comments

This is the hotel for our Cornwall visit. Great views, and splendid meals.

Camel Estuary Trail Comments
Cornwall's best known cycling route, based on the old Padstow to Bodmin railway line, its conversion from track bed to recreational route was undertaken by Cornwall County Council in 1980. The total length of the trail is 17 miles with perhaps the most popular section being the five miles between Padstow and Wadebridge (lovely views over the Camel Estuary).

Sandy and I bicycled this trail from Padstow to Wadebridge.
