Another day, another spent pound.  Wow, doesn't take long for your purse to get lighter but my suitcase doesn't seem to be getting heavier.  Not sure where it is all going.  Definitely not into adult drink!

Went to a theatre performance called "Kinky Boots".  Long story short, it has cross dressers in it (M to F) and I thought it was a hoot.  It had a moral to it's story as well as humour and drama.  Would definatly recommend seeing it.  Put me to remembering Patrick Swayze in "To Wong Foo from Julie Newmore".

Long night and even longer trip and walk back to the hotel.  My feet have swollen horribly and I look like I sausage toes.  It's actually very uncomfortable and sore.   Why we can't be using the bus more is beyond me.  We paid for a week pass for all forms of public transit, bus, subway, train and for some reason our guide doesn't want to overwhelm the buses with our group so he is making us walk everywhere.  Now with the amount of walking, sweating and limited eating I am doing, you would think the pounds, get it ha ha, would be dropping off but I do not believe that to be the case!  And some would say "Errin....you can't drink that much and expect it to not make a difference."  The problem is, I haven't been able to partake that much anyway because of driving the first week, late nights and kids the second week, and driving again this third week.  I forgot my dd at home.

Leaving London to go to the Warner Brothersto go to the Harry Potter tour.  This was very interesting.  They had pieces from the original set as well as information on how they made things work.  Only problem is that I ran out of time.

We stayed at another college university dorm.  Each of us had our own room.  A nice change however, Carolyn has now given me her cold and I am sick.  I have a fever and a very sore throat.  Thanks Carolyn! Just want to go to bed and sleep.  But, I already told Jacob I would wash a pair of his shorts so that has to get done first.  Problem is, I forgot them rolled up in the towel before I went off to sleep so they weren't dry for the am.  Woops!  Well, he has clean shorts for the next day.

The next day we toured around Bath and then went to visit the only Roman Bath left.  It was pretty neat.  At the end of the Bath Museum tour thing you got to taste the water.  It is supposed to have healing properties and people drink it all the time.  It was also warm when drinking it.  Kind tasted like a cross between Takhini Hot Springs and Liard Hot Springs.   Not that I would normally drink those waters but it does get on your lips.  I was really hoping for the miracle cold cure but it is now two days later and I am still sick.

From Bath we went to Stonehenge.   This was the first day I could really go my speed so it was really nice.


Jacob and I ate here.
