Oxford

Classes were in session and some of the colleges were closed so we were mostly restricted to Christ Church which was totally fine.

Potter fans - notice the stair case???
Yet another life long dream fulfilled! We took a bus from London to Oxford to visit the university.  I would have been okay with staying permanently.




Inside Christ Church Cathedral.  

The woodwork is over 300 years old and all hand carved.  This angel was at the end of the quire.

Both Wesley brothers were ordained at Christ Church and attended college there.  


Radcliffe Camera! Lewis fans, I waited for Robby but he must of been busy :)

At this point I had to pause for a moment of silence.  This is the Bodleian Library and one of the oldest libraries in Europe.  I thought about asking for a job....


Heading through the Great Hall.  Again, Potter fans - it's THE great hall! Plus a who's who of graduates including both Wesley's, William Penn and Henry VIII
