Summertime Photo Scavenger Hunt [5]

I went to Bath today and was lucky enough to take plenty of photos for the scavenger hunt.  

Warning .... this is a photo heavy post!

On the way to Bath I took this photo for No. 1 - a sign welcoming people to your home town.
 
As to be expected, Bath was a good choice of venue to get photos for No. 4 - a group of tourists.  Here's today's selection (the red and yellow thing in the corner of the third image is the guard rail on the open-topped bus):





No. 5 is a rack of post cards.  I managed to find these at two different locations today:


No 12 is a mascot.  This has been the most difficult one to find so far but today I was fortunate that a Bentley and a Mercedes were parked outside the Abbey and the chauffeurs allowed me to take these photos of the car bonnet mascots.


I found another offering for No 16, which is a sign in a language other than English:

I'm not sure if the following photos can count for No. 18 - a water fall.  These are shots of Pulteney Weir and may be the closest I can find for this prompt.


No. 19 is a public garden and these photos are of the Abbey Garden in Bath,


And finally (I can hear you sigh with relief!), No 20 is a bus with a picture painted on its sides




I also took loads more photos of lamp posts but I'll save them for another post.

  1. I love that Trowbridge has such lovely welcoming signs, and Bath was definitely a great place to go for the hunt. Lovely pics. x x

  2. That's definitely a water fall! And one of the most lovely public gardens and welcome signs I've seen this summer.
    The tourists all make me laugh. So glad I included that item.

  3. I love Bath! The Abbey Gardens are looking beautiful just now (even if the streets are heaving with daytrippers!). Such a fab city. Your weir pics are really nice and I also love the Merc emblem with the reflection. BTW someone else found the same bakery you did - recognised it immediately!

    We visited Bath for just a few hours last June on a wonderful tour of the UK...
    happy to see a bit more through your camera lens. It is such a nice place.
    Your Mercedes emblem reflection photo is WOW!!!

  11. Wow! You got some great photos. I believe I visited Bath in the early 80's on a school tour. What a beautiful place. Thank you.

  12. Bath is never short of tourists, no matter what the time of year! Great shots. I was in Trowbridge a couple of months ago to give my niece a send off before she went to Australia for a year. Small world.

  13. Wow great photos of my home town Bath. I am finding the welcome sign and a bus with pictures on it very difficult here now living in France. They do not seem to go in for that sort of thing! Diane

  17. So many fantastic photos! I love that your welcome sign is a flower box. And I am so jealous of your bus photo! I don't know if I will be able to get that one.
