Activities in Pictures

cabaret mechanical theatre workshop at kinetica:

i went to the workshop with a classmate where we created our own automata. here are some pics of the artists' work - the first one is by paul spooner and the second one is by keith newstead - followed by my creation (don't laugh)...

day trip to bath and bristol:

on sunday vij, gabby, gabby's boyfriend and i rented a car and drove to bath to "take in the waters" at the newly-opened thermae bath spa, located in the centre of town close to where the old roman baths are. on our way there from the parking lot we came across a "continental" festival showcasing lots of good food and wine from france. here are some pics:



mmm, garlic...



mmm, meat...



mmm, cheese...

at the tourist shop in the centre of town i came across this gem:





wise words indeed...

here is a pic of the rooftop pool, complete with jacuzzi section, waterfall section and breathtaking views of the city:



it was gorgeous, soaking in the heated spring waters saturated with minerals, while all around you was city and sky. it was pretty cheap too, 20 quid for two hours and you also had access to an indoor pool, steam room, shower room and foot spa. loved it.

this is a pic from the car on our way to bristol for dinner:

a bar/restaurant area full of trashy locals :o)
