A few snippets from Bath, London and home during a A few snippets from Bath, London and home during a burning-hot July, some taken on my phone, others on my big camera. It's been a busy month, but a good one. I'm looking forward to a slightly slower August, and hopefully some rain for the parched landscape.

Back in May I spent three fantastic days exploring Back in May I spent three fantastic days exploring Bergen with my friend Becky, and I've finally got around to putting together a city guide. 

Norway's second-largest city and one-time capital is known as the ‘gateway to the fjords’, and many people fly in and head straight back out again on a cruise. But it’s a place that’s well worth exploring, either as part of a wider itinerary or as a destination in its own right. Sandwiched between mountains and sea, it's a wonderful mix of history, culture and scenery, with a Unesco-listed Hanseatic harbourside, plenty of art galleries, a thriving food scene, and pretty wooden houses that creep up the slopes of its famous seven hills. 

Here are my top 12 things to see and do in Bergen, including restaurants, viewpoints, museums and more. Save this post for your future travels, and find my full Bergen guide on the blog.

[AD - PR invite] Going to the Summer Lates at @the [AD - PR invite] Going to the Summer Lates at @theromanbaths in Bath has become a bit of a tradition for us in recent years. They stay open until 10pm, and they're absolutely magical illuminated by the setting sun and flickering torches. They even set up a bar by the main pool, and there are music sessions on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. It's nice to enjoy such a special place in a relaxed, sociable way, just as the Romans did 2,000 years ago.

Summer Lates run every evening until 31st August, so do head along if you're local or visiting Bath.
