July 24 - Oxford






Today we left "home" at 9 am to take the tube to a station to buy our tickets for a train to go to Oxford. We arrived in Oxford at noon and split up to explore the town. As you can see it was a beautiful warm day, the first we've really had since being here. The city, the buildings, the history were all amazing - as was the blue sky and the 70+ degree weather. It was so nice.
A highlight for the blogger was to visit the pub where C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolken met for years with other writers/scholars to discuss many things including their work. Having a pint in that pub was a special experience.
