Stories of the UK and Ireland

You've heard the stories of London. Now here's the rest of my adventures.

Bath. The name says it all, like "Snakes on a Plane." It's the Roman baths that are the main attraction here. Not exactly clean, but what do you expect after 2,000 years? Pretty nice spot.

Oh, and the water at the adjacent Pump Room. Don't drink it. Remember camping as a child at one of those campgrounds where there are cabins with electricity and air conditioning? Remember the drinking fountains there? That's what the water tastes like.

The streetlamps there were given to the city by the producers of "Vanity Fair" for their accomadation for those making the movie. Great. Now I can't think of a World Heritage Site without thinking of a certain Oscar winner with a foot fetish.

Saw the Stonehenge. No alien conspiracy here, guys. Built by the Druids to mark the winter soltice as the time of death. Tell your friends that. Oh, and how about rocks from IRELAND?! Yeah, you heard me.

More tomorrow.

My time's up, you've been great. For the road: Matisyahu "King Without A Crown"
