Dinner found me giddy as can be, imagining Catherine and Miss Tilney promenading around the very room in which we were sitting and eating!  And knowing that Jane herself must have taken the waters from that very fountain!  Derek occasionally reminds me that most of the people I’m talking about are fictional, but he’s been pretty good about my fangirlishness.

The Pump Room is beautiful!  I love Georgian architecture!  So clean and lovely. Pump Room and Roman Baths 005   Pump Room and Roman Baths 004 Pump Room and Roman Baths 007

We were delighted to discover the tourists gone as soon as we came out from dinner.  Bath is so lovely without the crowds!

And the Roman Baths are delightful by night.  The museum is quite an extensive one on the history of the Roman settlement in Bath.  Definitely one we want to bring the kids to someday!

At the end, we had to take the waters, of course.  Derek: “Well, it’s not as bad as the water in the Mauck drinking fountain!”  (True.  I have yet to taste anything as vile as our dorm water.)

I could definitely taste those 43 minerals.  It was very, um, heavy tasting.
