A big day of walking and exploring. I have pretty much covered the whole city. I started off with breakfast on my own in the dining room at St. Benet’s, at a table which seats 34. I felt like a lonely princess haha. I decided to go to University Parks and walk around and enjoy the scenery. It is a gorgeous park, definitely a great place for photography. I then walked to the Oxford University Natural History Museum and had a look around. Then I did a tour at Oxford Castle which was still a gaol until 1996. Other places I explored included Christ Church College, Bodleian Library (although the tours were booked out), New College (although the entrance was nowhere to be found) and the Botanic Gardens. I ended my day with a visit to Blackwell’s Bookstore. A massive 5 level shop with wall to wall books. I can only imagine how much time and money Mum & Grandma would spend with a limitless supply! I decided to give Jane Austen a go so have purchased a few of her books. For dinner I tried Café Rouge and enjoyed another serving of banana & chocolate crepes for dessert. And as a bonus I got back and realised X Factor was about to start. I was never into it back home but here it’s on a whole different scale.
