A view at the Botanical Gardens, though my camera ran out of batteries just afterwards and I was so upset that I couldn't get a good shot of the Cherwell river, with all the punting boats. Maybe tomorrow, when we turn in our papers, and punt with strawberries straight afterwards.

This one is for Laura: it's a stuffed otter in the Oxford Museum of Natural Sciences.

The Radcliffe Camera, from the view of the top of the University Church.

This one is for Kristin: care of our dear friend Bridget Jones.

The High Street (main street) in Oxford, just after nine in the morning. Not crowded; pleasant.

At the cafe, Justine and I had "Cream Tea" which means tea with scones, jam and Cornish clotted cream.

Ha ha ha. Those hogs were huge.

My favourite friends: SHEEP!

The manor and the gardens. In true English fashion.

A Norman church at the Victorian manor farm of Cogges, near Witney (11 miles out of Oxford). We visited last Saturday afternoon.

I envy you the scones and clotted cream--my mouth is watering! Make sure to buy only Hartley's Jams and Jellies: they're nothing but the best. . .
I feel unpositively about the fact that the otter is stuffed. It is not nearly so cute that way.
Oh, I have pictures of me petting that otter:) I miss Oxford
