The grass is greener on the other side...

Well, I have arrived! All is well! The plane ride here was interesting. I flew to Newark on a VERY small plane. I could have laid down across the isle and my feet would have touch one side and my hands would have easily touched the other. But it was good because I had no one beside me. It was beautiful above the clouds. At Newark I walked around the airport and stumbled across a life size cutout of Barack Obama! I almost took his picture but then I saw some other tourists doing it and thought they looked somewhat dorky standing in the middle of the mall with all their luggage. So I didn't. Sorry! Flight to Heathrow was nice. Barely slept though. And maneuvering through Heathrow was a bit of a struggle because I had two massive and heavy suitcases a carry-on and a purse. But I managed to get them from the luggage pick-up to the underground train then to the central bus station in another terminal and onto a coach.
The coach ride to Bath was beautiful. There was a lot of fields and barely any forest, only lines of trees. AND, the grass in some places was LIME GREEN! Like I'm talking radioactive green. It was so weird. There was places where it was sorta dead yellow-y like we would see in Canada, but then an entire field or somebody's front lawn would be bright limy green! I must say I dwelled on the grass for most of my coach ride.
When I got to Bath it was about 11:30, and the office said they weren't able to give me my key until 2:00. So I stowed my bags there and explored the city. There are loads of shops (mostly high-end shops and boutiques) and lots of brick buildings and cobblestone roads. I snapped a few pictures (posted below). I plan to go adventuring more today, so I will probably update this again soon.
