Our Oxford Odyssey

---

Still having a great time. I will say less here in the beginning and put more explanations with the pictures. Thank you for your greetings and prayers while we are here. Glenn & Nooni are now in Venice for her birthday and we are experiencing normal life in Oxford. The walking is wonderful! Two days we have gone over 18,000 steps. Should be less now that we don't have to go back and forth to Lincoln College. Here are some pictures. Hope you enjoy them. Cheers!

The Quad at Lincoln College
This was on our way to breakfast.

Almost a Dollar Store
Poundland has everything for 1 pound. Quite like our dollar stores.

St. Giles Anglican Church
This a block away from where Glenn works. We will go to Evensong here on Sunday Evening.

Modern Buildings
Right in the middle of these ancient building, here will be an impossibly modern one. Amazing

The Lamb& Flag Pub
One of the favorite meeting places for C.S. Lewis and Tolkien.

St. John's College
Absolutely beautiful.

The Randolph House
The "posh" hotel to stay in downtown.

Old Cemetery
This was so lovely but you certainly couldn't read the headstones.

Same Cemetery
It's hard to believe that this is just in the middle of the shopping area.

Jesus College
This was just across the little lane from Lincoln College

More of Jesus College
I couldn't get a full picture because the Street was so narrow.

& More of Jesus College
Quite beautiful.

John Wesley
John Wesley was a "Fellow" here in the 1700's. I tried to take a picture of his study, but the glass reflected too much and I couldn't get a clear shot.

Chrissy & Jim
Chrissy & Jim right outside our room which was on the "First" floor, which means we go up one flight from the ground floor.

Our room at Lincoln College
The are student dorm rooms that they use for their "bed & Breakfast" Very comfortable.

Chrissy playing.
We even had a small piano that Chrissy played for us, so now she can say that she played at Oxford.

The chapel at Lincoln
This is where John Wesley prea Clched while he was in Lincoln College

Closed
Unfortunately, the chapel was closed when we were there.

The Eagle and Child Pub
The other favorite of Lewis and Tolkien. We hope to have lunch in one of them next week.

The Canal
This is where we take Louis, the granddog, for his walks.

On the bridge
Chrissy didn't want to climb the stairs.
