The water tastes that way, because of the sulphur in it as it is a hot spring which means it is geothermal so like Volcanic.

[@marajadefire77]

Waited for your reaction to the waters. I think tasted flavours of fish tank when I tried it!

[@stephenobrien5909]

I don't know where you live, but if you really want to go then its possible. If you smoke, cut down or better still stop and put the money ibn a jar. Same with drink, take a couple of nights off and save. In a year or 2 the money is there, and don't forget the money you spend at home while you would be on holiday can be taken too.

It's the awesomeness of standing on or touching stone structures etc.. that some Roman touched or stood on, nearly 2000 years ago.

[@krashd]

Must be even stranger for Americans as those structures are 8 times older than the US 0_O

[@brochestedbs]

When we go to our local theatre (Colchester) we park and walk through a Roman archway in the Roman walls to get to the theatre. When we were first in the USA I was telling a girl in a shop that we lived near the oldest town in Britain, founded in AD54. She was amazed. "Gee, that's old! 1854!" When I put her right she found it hard to believe me.

[@susanabernethy3070]

Thanks! I am a fan of history, in particularly ancient Britain. I really enjoyed touring the baths in 1998 and was interested to see the visual additions you've presented. When I was there you had to pay to sample the water. I didn't. When I was there a ticket to the baths also let you into the costume museum nearby, which was also fascinating.

Also, visit Heathers Cafe (down a little alleyway off Black Jack Street) for the best service and really lovely homemade food. Love your vlogs and excited that you are visiting . 😊

[@Slapdash_86]

"all the towns in England are charming" Try saying that when you're in Basildon 😂😂😂

[@raphy3842]

I live in Bath! I haven't been to the Roman Baths myself for years, but it would be cool to go back and have a look. The Christmas Market is generally disliked by most locals because it makes the town unnecessarily busy and in some cases ruins business for certain local shops, but on the whole it's a fun event. Also every time I walk past Gong Fu it's empty but I'm told the food in there is pretty great, it's nice to see vloggers who are bringing recognition to otherwise hidden places around the UK, despite Bath's popularity with tourists, I don't see many people documenting it, and it always makes me really happy when they do (it's especially fun to point out places I recognise and be like, "Wow, these people are walking where I was walking the other day!")

[@TheLondonLass]

I love the Roman Baths. If you visit in summer they open them up into the late evening and have them lit up with torches. It looks absolutely gorgeous.

I'd always heard from Americans that British food was awful, makes a nice change to see you enjoying it :).

[@lewisb85]

It's a misconception that built up after the second world war.

[@overthewebb]

Yeah, I agree with Lewis it comes from the 2nd World War due to American soldiers being here at the time of rationing. It carried on for years later as rationing lasted a lot longer afterwards. But due to rationing it took a long time for our chefs to get back in the game and up to speed. Now we have some of the best food in the world.

[@Anglo-Brit]

Thats not British food..

No Direnova it wasn't. They ate Chinese food, not British food.

You’re doing a great job promoting the UK as a really interesting place to visit, even if we do have really unpredictable weather. I recommend if you visit UK again trying staying in a Shepherds Hut - a small but perfectly formed caravan. I posted a video on my channel of one I stayed in Somerset - ignore the not great video/sound but check out the cuteness - cider on arrival, a wood-fired hot tub and a farm field all to yourself! We also stayed in another one in Hampshire over Christmas last year which had an outdoor hot tub.

The Roman Baths in Bath are great. OK I'm biased as I was born in Bath. In the 70's residents were allowed to swim in the Great Bath a couple of times a year. This only stopped when a young girl picked up an infection from the water and died. Then the traditional swims were cancelled.

Miles of New Forest of Oaks Heather, Gorse, and wild ponies horses and deer, the biggest free four day airshow across beyond a doubt the best beach in the UK, Maiden Castle(A giant Iron age hillfort with the foundation remains of a Roman Temple probably commisioned by Vespasian. Durdle door, a natural coastal rock archway, it's hollow, I'm not sure if you still can but my dad scuba dived inside and saw light shining through and tons of giant crabs. Old Harries rocks( chalk cliff formations named after the Pirate who hid around them) Corfe Castle(not much left after the civil war, but so photographic, plus the ferry trip there is quite fun, and the village is pretty) Hurst castle at the end of a long spit surrounded by water, so close to the Isle of wight you can make out buildings. Cerne Abbas, An Iron age chalk hill carving....who is happy to see you ;). Badbury Rings, another Durotrigian Hillfort, which if you walk into the middle of it and look at google maps is quite impressive. Hengistbury Head combining ancient history and stunning views. And also the Towns and villages. Swanage is pretty and Durlston(a coastal area in Swanage is deffo worth checking out) Weymouth is the real England, still very English, yet scenic and Historic and connected to the Island portland(covered in forts and castles) across a long shale. Obviously Christchurch(historic saxon town with some very pretty streets), Bournemouth(with miles of maintained Gardens) Wareham, Winchester(the original capitol of England and Wessex, home of Alfred the Great) Dorchester(some of the best museums) *Stonehenge* 😁 .... aha... there's just so many more I could list!🙈 Anyway much love to you, and your country, our closest and truest friends.

Guys, you are just down the road from me. If you want a tour guide for the day I would love to show you some of the local sites and give you some background on the area. If not here's some tips. 1. Malmesbury - genuinely unique little town with a picturesque hilltop ruined abbey and the first capital of England. The proper first king of a unified England was based there (Athelstan) 2. Jessie Smiths on BlackJack Street - best for burgers, steaks etc. in Cirencester. Bit pricey though. 3. Bibury, Arlington Row on Awkward Hill - the prototypical English cottage row. Pretty much every English house from the middle ages onwards and the whole basis of English pictorials was based on these. Very, very pretty (and tiny) 4. Haresfield Beacon, iron age fort - viewpoint based on a 3k year old hill fort, just to show that there was stuff going on before the Romans arrived. Lovely views across the River Severn towards Wales and the Malverns. Lovely little secret spot and one of my favourite thinking spots. As I said, would love to hook up so let me know if interested.

The Abbey Church (commonly known as Bath Abbey) was formerly part of a Benedictine monastery dissolved by Henry VIII in 1539. It fell into disrepair but was later restored and became the parish church of Bath. It has a long and colourful history, and has been rebuilt several times. The changes continue: the Victorian pews have recently been removed and sold off.
