Oxford

The town of Oxford is a fascinating blend of architectures but very densely populated with lots of trees making it feel even denser...and difficult to document if you aren't on foot.

We got off at a corner of one of the 39 colleges that make up Oxford University.  I wasn't keeping good notes but I think this is Exeter College.

We were not allowed in but they had a place you could peek into their courtyard  and take a photo.

We were guided around for almost an hour seeing stuff that looked nothing like what I thought this place was from seeing it in the movies.

This is the Sheldonian Theater designed by Sir Christopher Wren.

A statue of King James in one of the quads.

An example of Venetian influence at one point.

And other buildings.

I am surprised I was so surprised by this place. Really thought it was a walled area with quads.

On the way home I spotted this unusual billboard in London.

Very modern and just rotated through several advertisings.

Tomorrow we are off to Salisbury to see Stonehenge and the cathedral.
