bathe yourself in my adventures in BATH

BATH aka the largest retirement center on Earth. It's a tourist city due to the Roman Baths there, which once were a place to socialize and relax, but are now lined with lead pipes and will kill you if you bathe in them. My time in Bath went like this: bus ride there, roughly 5 hours, 2 hrs of free time, 2 hour walking tour of Bath, another 2 hrs of free time, walk around the Roman baths, sleep, wake up, and finally another 2 hrs of free time. Now if somebody could please tell me what to do with a grand total 6 hours of free time in a city where everything closes at 5:30, I would very much appreciate it. I should have known when I first saw the year-round Christmas store and an ATM located a foot and a half off the ground that it would be a city where retired people go to die. 15 minutes into our first round of personal freedom Annalyse, Karla, and I were already looking at each other wondering what the hell to do. So like any true American, we went to Burger King. During our next 2 hour break we got sandwiches, and finally the next morning we got breakfast. The city itself was very cute, as would be any town inhabited by old people. We also went into Bath Abbey (another church) and sat there for a while admiring the architecture and stained glass windows. The Roman Baths were pretty cool and filled our heads with information that historians have thought up, but none of which is probably true. You're allowed to have a glass of the water taken from a different natural spring where drinking it won't kill you, but I remember from last time that it tasted like body sweat and ass so I gladly passed on that opportunity.
