A very tourist day!

Today was our visit to Oxford and Blenheim Palace. As a history major, it was very cool to see the architecture and hear the stories of each location. There were plenty of reformation stories which are always cool to hear given their importance in Catholic history and theology. We started in Oxford near the location…

A Day at The Palace

Our trip today involved taking a coach to Oxford and to Blenheim Palace. I had been looking forward to this day because I love castles and palaces, additionally I had looked up Blenheim palace photos before and I was really excited to see it because it looked beautiful. We had been told all week that…

Wish I could fit a baby sheep in my suitcase…

There’s Multiple Oxfords?!

After today, I can officially say I’ve been to Oxford University! With an early morning wake up and a quick snooze on the 2 hour coach ride (it’s just a bus, I know the British term sounds fancy), we arrived in the very beautiful city of Oxford. The first site to see was the Martyr…

Oxford leading us out..
