Hello again!
We made it to Oxford yesterday afternoon after some last minute shopping on Oxford street in London. We caught the bus but didn't realise you had to pay with cash and Lex and I didn't have very much between us but the nice bus driver let us on with whatever coins we had.
It was only about an hour and a halfs drive through pleasant English countryside before arriving in Oxford. It is such a quaint looking city. Very different to London. We got in at about 2:30 and were quite hungry so we went to a local pub and had some very unhealthy but welcomed food.
Today we explored much more of Oxford than yesterday. Went on a city sightseeing bus tour which only took an hour for the whole city, which tells you just how small it is! Then we went exploring Oxford Castle where we went on a tour of the gaol cells and the dungeons. It wasn't all that pleasant but very interesting.
We then made our way to Oxford University's Christ Church College, setting for lots of the Harry Potter movies (yay) and it was very beautiful.
Tomorrow we hope to get to go on a tour of some more of the University and then go to Blenheim Palace where Winston Churchill was born. Then we'll head off to Bath!
Lots of love,
Ellie xxxx
