London & Oxford

---

Well we're here in Oxford now after a stop off in Liverpool then a nice 2 day visit with Chris and Jim in London. Liverpool was alright, all we managed to see was the original Cavern Club where the Beatles played over 300 times before they were really big. We left after only one day for the big city which was crazy busy and crazy expensive (Tower of London was about $50 CAD each!). We can't complain though as our short visit was very kindly subsidised by Jim. Jay was a little sad to see her mom go but we made the best of it by moving on to Oxford.

After walking around town all afternoon we finally found a spot to rest our heads at a local campsite and so far it's worked out great. It has been busy but we're fighting through the crowds to see the college.

Anyways, next we move south towards the beaches in SW England. We finally have some sun and heat so we're going to take advantage of some beach time and hopefully catch some waves down there. The plan is to spend a week or so hanging out then look for some volunteering opportunities.

Take care,
Alex (and Jay)
