I very much want to go to Bath - and walk in that garden with the waterfall where "Northanger Abbey" was filmed, and walk up the hill "with" Captain Wentworth and Anne ... sigh ... I am a major Anglophile, while being extremely appreciative of our societal differences from our cousins. And I adore Austen's works. I read through them all at least once a year. Am on Mansfield Park right now.

I got a book from the library some time ago called something like Walking Tours of Bath. It looks like a wonderful place to visit.

Ah! Fanny Price........supposed to be the closest character to the author herself!

Sometimes I wish we could still speak like Jane Austen characters, don't you?
