We are spending the last day of our UK trip at our son's place in Bath before
all four of us fly back to Alicante tonight. I woke up early and went for a
walk in my son's not very interesting neighbourhood. And yet, I took my picture
of the day during this walk--one of Britain's and hence the world's oldest rail
lines, connecting Bath with Bristol and built by Isambard Kingdom Brunel in
1839-1840. By coincidence, I am reading a book about the arrival of the
railroad in Bath in 1840 and the impact it had on the local economy and
society. Fascinating piece of social history.
