The City Of Bath Before Wake Time

I went for an early morning walk today around 5AM towards the city centre of Bath. I love doing this early walk as it gives me a chance to see the city before it gets filled with tourists. And believe me when I say everyday is filled with a sea of tourists specially on the weekends. I managed to take lovely photos without the usually buzz and I got my 10k steps done before half day. I am so happy.

It is quite a particularly interesting architecture. It is at least 400 years old.

I would always go for early morning exercise around that time. I go out for walking or cycling around 5_5:30 in the morning. I like the freshness of air at that time. And very little noise outside. I can hear birds chirping.

It is amazing plus it feels like time stands still and you have been productive before some people awoke.

@flapiz Very true. I totally echo with that thought. I am a morning lark. I am most productive from 5 AM to 4 PM. I don't want to waste them.

@arunima25 I usually am not a morning person when I am working but when I am off work I tend to be as I have all the energy in the world.

@flapiz FYI Berkley Springs West Virginia, has hot springs and was originally named Bath for the Bath in the UK. It even has a castle! In case you are ever playing a trivia game

Oh always been really crowded almost like getting drowned by people. I love it but not when it is too busy. I get flustered when there are too many people.

Wow that's very lovely place for a morning walk. Anyway that is so amazing to have a 10k steps early in the morning, a very healthy way to start the day.

I failed to follow through. The cold weather makes me scared to go out of the house.

Great early morning photo whilst it’s quiet. I spotted what looks like a seagull flying overhead. I hope it didn’t target you?

Ahahaha thankfully not. There are a lot of them in Bath they actually cause the streets to be dirty with poo and also rubbish as they scavenge it.

@Orson_Kart I know I do not blame them as they have to love too but it is becoming a bit unhygienic I have been pooed on a lot by pigeon this year 3 times in the last 2 months.

@flapiz They are everywhere now. They used to be only found around the coast, but have moved inland to scavenge. I blame the fast food chain McDonald’s.

That sounds like a very relaxing way to get your steps in. I can imagine that the city would be filled with tourists on a daily basis.
