Oxford

The students had gone off to live-in. (that's when they live with a british family for a few days) So we took off for a family day trip to Oxford. We took the Oxford tube, which is actually a bus, out there. Some of the students didn't go to live in, so some of them and the Bartons went out with us. After we got there the kids were hungry for lunch, so they got to do one of their favorite things and eat at pizza hut's all you can eat buffet. They stayed for an hour, so that they could eat as much as possible. Hansen ate about 8 pieces and Eliza ate 6 I think.

This is the Ashmolean, a great museum in Oxford.

We also toured Christ's church, which is one of the colleges. More importantly they filmed some of Harry Potter here.


These are the stairs that they were standing on before they got sorted.

In the church at Christ's church there was this cool scary skull head.


Walking along the back of the colleges.
It was a really fun day, but I could spend a couple more there. There's never enough time.

You have been very busy blogging. It looks like you are all caught up.

I love seeing what we do from your perspective; it doubles the fun.
