Retro: Roman Baths
On this day 10 years ago, Shari and I were in Bath, England. Having travelled all night, we were exhausted, but we still had the energy for a bit of an outing in the town, including this visit to the ancient Roman baths. And no, because of the quality of the water, people don’t swim in there today!
The earliest inscription at the site, seen below, is from 76AD. It reads, “. . . in the 7th consulship of the Emperor Vespasian”. Amazing to see things that date from a time when there were still people alive who had witnessed the resurrected Lord! Vespasian became emperor in 69AD.
