I only have time for a quick post because I have to finish a book tonight, but I needed to post about today!
Jonathan Kirkpatrick took a small group of us on a tour around Oxford particularly, the first girl’s college, University park, Magdellan, Merton, and Christ Church colleges (although, do not call Christ Church, Christ Church college). We also went into University church. We saw some places where Tolkien, Lewis, Carroll, and Sayers lived/worked/frequented. Magellan particularly is where Lewis went to school. I will go into depth more on this later.
The other thing we did today was punting. Punting is where you are in a long boat, and someone at the back has a large heavy metal pole (very long). They use this pole to push the boat through the water and to move it in the right direction (if they can, that is). It is very hard to do. I tried it and loved it!
Also, I made dinner tonight by myself with only asking someone for a teeny bit of encouragement/help. I put a lot of nice spices on it, some olives and sun dried tomatoes from the community food and created something VERY good!! 🙂
Now onto studying!
