Hi Chris...... What lovely old buildings. They were built about the time Canada was being discovered, grin. My vote would be for Brackenhill.......the baths are too new. It always boggles me in Europe to see something older than the 1700's. Just amazing. Such as the Alhambra in Granada........and another one was the Roman ruins in Taragona, south of Barcelona. Allegedly that was where Pontius Pilate grew up. These are things that we just read about......so to see them in person is just awe-inspiring!! Same as the time we went to Chichenitza in the Yucatan......I scared myself climbing on the pyramids. (G) Cheers.......Heather > However, there is a BBC2 joy that has just started.
