Overcast, but warm…23 degrees, rain later in the day.

No alarm today was glorious – when is no alarm not glorious?
By the time we got moving it was noon. Today being Sunday and also during
Bristol’s hot-air balloon festival is busy around the old town. Out hotel is in
the old part of the city so it is a short walk to the water – Bristol Harbour.
The Harbour doesn’t seem to be a harbour in a functional sense, but is a
tourist zone, with restaurants, bars, a market and other very touristy
amenities.
lunch on the water |
Somehow our after-lunch stroll ends us up at another pub
with a soccer match on. It’s a bit of dude central, with a few families thrown
in. It’s still odd to see little kids at pubs.
not fake tasting enough |
In the evening we tried for dinner in a pub, but of course
no pubs seem to serve food in the evenings. At least this is what we found out
last night and again tonight. We weren’t exactly up for a fancier Italian meal,
but that’s what we found.
Our quest for foreign chip flavour continues. Today it is
roasted chicken and thyme. I think these are my least favourite so far. They are
very authentically flavoured, which is somehow just a bit weird. Of course they
aren’t so weird that we don’t eat them!
We have officially gone from the smallest (at least one of
the smallest) to the largest showers we’ve ever been in. There are 2 entrances
to it on either side. It was hard to take a shot of, but is behind this giant
tub – note the 2 doors to the loo…that
is a first also!

I am loving all the "chip" pictures as much as the "drink in hand" pictures!!
Chips and drinks what could be better.
I too am loving the gourmet chip quest...bubbles would be good with them
