I spent a nice day Thursday in Bath all by myself. I found that being by yourself as a tourist is actually kind of nice. You don't have to consult someone else every single time you want to turn a corner, and you can do whatever you want whenever you want, without having to compromise. However, it's not something I plan to do very often. Bath was really pretty and nice, but definitely seeable in one day. I was only there for 5 hours or so, and I felt pretty satisfied with my experience. Basically if you like Jane Austen novels, Bath is great, cause two of them take place there. Even if you haven't read them though, it's obvious that the city was in it's prime during the days of ball gowns and calling cards and tea. It hasn't changed much since then, so it's kind of like going back in time a little bit. I am uploading photos right now, though I'm afraid they're a bit boring because there aren't any people in them. But that's what happens when you travel alone.
Yesterday Jessie and Denver came home from Paris. We went out for Indian food and hung out on the giant couch again. This afternoon we went to Notting Hill. Just a few more days until Scotland with Jessie! We have our bus tickets and hostel all booked, and I can't wait! I have ben dying to go to Scotland all year and now I am finally going. I hope I see lots of furry cows.

Are you going to have some deep-fried haggis?
I wonder if the furry cows shed in the summer like your cat, Ashley, who is all ratty-looking right now.
Dang holmes, sorry I forgot to get back to you about your hostel recommendations before you booked it. Well, in any case the one Let's Go to Western Europe recommended was not nearly as awesome sounding as St. Christopher's/Belushi's so I hope you booked that.
dude, I am way jealous about Scotland. Take loads of pictures!
I traveled alone for several hours in granada, and I hated it. it was raining though, and I hadn't slept the night before. bad combo. but bath sounds lovely. I LOVE scotland. I ate haggis two days in a row and loved it. only later did I find out what it actually is. I think it was better that way. oh, and I just saw animal collective and thought of you the whole time.
I am going to watch Notting Hill right now!
P.S. Amy stole my You've Got Mail!!!!!!
