This is the view of Bath from our rented house. We are only 15 mins walk from the centre of the city.
The Royal Crescent was one of the first places that we explored this afternoon.

We spent the afternoon at The Yorkshire Sculpture Park and walked down to the lake to see the Poppies Wave which is made from 5,800 ceramic poppies. There were part of the 882,000 at the Tower of London installation created by the artist Paul Cummins and the designer Tom Piper.

Saturday 10th October
We saw several cars parked by the side of the road near Spofforth so slowed down and were fortunate to see the Boston to Menwith Hill section of the last flight by a Vulcan bomber. It was very low and the sky was clear.
The Kitchen gardens were looking good and there were lots of visitors.
The colours in the long borders were superb.
This tree is still green and the colour is provided by an enormous creeper.
The Streamside Garden was also lovely.

We were heading to Harlow Carr Gardens for the Wood and Food Fest where we enjoyed a cookery demonstration by Lionel Strub and advice about growing and propagating herbs.

Wednesday 7th October
About a hundred metres of the footpath at Golden Acre Park was flooded even though water appeared to be pouring down the spillway at the far end of the lake faster than it was coming in from the stream at this end. We have only had one day of heavy rain.
The dahlias are well away from the water and were a welcome splash of colour.
The beds of chrysanthemums were also impressive. This is one of the best times of the year to visit these gardens.
