Salisbury Cathedral

Another day, another cathedral. I'm starting to sense a trend for this semester...

I took this looking down into a reflecting pool in the middle of the cathedral entryway. It's now one of my favorite pictures from the trip so far.

This cathedral is of the Gothic Style. I'm smart because I read "A Story of Art".

C.S. Lewis Walk

There's a path that walks round the grounds of Magdalen College that C.S. Lewis walked and apparently "met God". It was a very spiritual walk, surrounded by nature and deer. 

then and now in Oxford

I was walking through Magdalen College in Oxford today and I suddenly had a flashback. I remembered my dad and I sitting on this bridge I was currently walking over and my mom took our picture. I grabbed a nearby friend and attempted to recreate it. It actually turned out really well considering I haven't seen the picture in years! All from memory.

a stoney let down...

Wow, that's a really lame title, but I'm just gonna go with it. Stonehenge was a let down. We couldn't get anywhere near it. And even if we had paid the ridiculous amount, it would have only gotten us like 10 feet closer. It was great to see, but once is enough.

Avebury

Avebury is cooler than stonehenge. We could actually walk around and touch these stones. While there are no stones stacked on top of one another, there is still a massive stone formation that turned out to be a calendar of some sort. Plus we got to chase around goats for an hour, and that's ALWAYS fun until someone gets hurt, which someone did.

Our hilarious bus driver James (with his hat he found). It's extremely load and extremely Scottish. He called us up one by one on the first day we had him to interrogate us individually with the microphone for the entire bus to hear. We only get him to Paris, we all wish we had him for the entire semester.

The Eagle and Child

This is the pub that C.S. Lewis and J.R.R Tolkien hung out at while they were teaching at Oxford. We felt smart eating and drinking here.

walking Oxford

The streets of Oxford. I had a massive flashback while walking down these streets this weekend of when I walked them last time I was here with my family. These side streets are super cool during the day, but tonight we learned that they're super creepy at night...
