Visiting the Roman’s mark in England
As Cybele claimed that there’s nothing interesting to see in Bristol, she took me to Bath today after her home made Soba noodles. After much drama of not being able to catch the train we intended to get on, we finally arrived Bath Spa by one. Bath actually had already caught my eye on my way from Ox to Bristol even just from the train and it is only 15 minutes train from Bristol.
We went to the Roman Bath and lied on the lawn in front of Royal Crescent. We shopped on High Street snap shot in front of the Bath Abbey and hugged Pigasso and his fellow brothers which scattered all over the town. Before paying the one quid admission to the Park beside the river, we went to the Sally Lunn Cafe where Cybele and I shared a cream tea and the famous Sally Lunn Bun. Although I found the one pound admission to the park ridiculous, we still made the payment obediently as it was simply too gorgeous to resist…
When we were back to Bristol, Cybele took me out to meet her friends at Zero Degrees for dinner. Half of the premises is actually a brewer. You can order novelty beer in the restaurant. we shared a kilo pot of green Thai curry mussels and two pizzas among four. Feeling unsettle with the lack of sweet after meal, we succumbed to our desire and ordered the devilish banoffee pie and an apple tartine.
Afterwards, we all went to Watershed which I guess is like Oslo’s Åker Brugge or Sydney’s Darling Harbour – filled with bars and colourful night life. With the high hopes of trying her first Margarita, Cybele walked away from the bar sipping on her disgusting cocktail when I happily devour my all time favourite – Malibu with pineapple. (I found everything very diluted after the five jello shots and four tequila shots…)
Oh yeah, by the way, I swear the water feature in front of Watershed is done by the same landscape architect that did the one near Darling Harbour!
