We went to Oxford, England yesterday via fast train. It took us about an hour to get there. It was the first time I had ever been on a train, which was rad.! Oxford was such a cool place to visit. We were there all day and had a great time walking around seeing everything. I decided to just do a slideshow because there were over 100 pictures. We are stoked to go visit other places!
Today I went with John's classmates and a tour guide on a legal tour of London in Holborn. I'm not gonna lie, at times it was a little boring for me cause I'm not a law student and am not into legal stuff, but the tour guide was very knowledgeable and pretty interesting about the legal side of London. They do it a bit different than we do in the states. The buildings were cool and very old. Some buildings even had pock marks from the first World War. It started raining again, but this time we were prepared and had our umbrella. Everyone in London carries one all the time because you NEVER know when it will just start pouring, and then it may stop for 5 minutes, then start again! After the legal tour everyone headed over to a bunch of pubs to try out. We went to one and got some fine wine (not...) some garlic cheese bread then we peaced out. Everyone was getting wasted and for us non-drinkers it's not nearly as exciting. We stopped at a bookstore, then headed home. Anyway, it was a fun afternoon...
John and I went to Tower Bridge and then walked over to London Bridge; which is not that impressive, but Tower Bridge was pretty cool! It started raining and got pretty windy, so we bought these crappy, cheap, white rain ponchos. We looked pretty ridiculous in them, but we did keep dry!
A creepy little midget I had to sneak a pic of...
Sorry for the crude humor...We had to pick it up cause it cracked us up!
