As recapped many times before, we have asked Eli to summarize the educational daytrips we’ve been going on by writing a short theme. I am then posting an image and a transcription of each theme as a blog post. Allow me to present our trip to Bath– the longest travel time in a daytrip we have taken yet (2 1/2 hours of travel each direction, and only 4 hours in the city)! This is Eli’s fourth post in the series.

I went to Bath…..
First I went to the Roman
Baths. I liked seeing the
folded curses and I drank the
Bath water and I thought it
was super good. It tasted
like hot water with fizz.
Second, we went to the Bath
Abbey. It was cool because
I did a cool quiz and got a
ruler as a prize.
Third, I went to the Jane
Austen Center. I learnd
all about Jane Austen. I also
got a paper house. It was a fun
day!

Hi Dalley family!
I’m just joining the Dalley family trip–I’ve been in some other country since the start of the semester, I guess! I LOVE this blog! I can’t wait to show it to Declan! Eli, Declan received your postcard today. He liked it so much he put it on the refridgerator, where he can look at it every day.
Miss you guys!
Leslie, Brian and Declan
