i took a day trip from london to oxford. it is a nice little town/city northwest of london that is uber famous as you likely know. apparently twenty-something prime ministers of the united kingdom have gone to school there, as well as some other notables such as benazir bhutto, indira gandhi and many others! i learned some interesting things – there are a large number of “colleges” spread about the town (actually there are so many that the town is basically filling the little gaps between them) – when combined they make up oxford university. i basically just walked around there the entire day. oh yes, i also climbed the spire of a little church for a fantastic view. the bus to get there ended up taking three times as long as it should have because the freeway was backed up. this is because it snowed again last night. all people here can talk about is the weather, and its not even very cold. i take that back, it is rather cold (considering i didn’t bring a coat).
