I love this bridge 🙂 Can we build some in California please?
The Thames river walk
J.R.R. Tolkien’s House
Keble College, where I am staying. Lewis often lectured at Keble! One of the 39 colleges around town that make up Oxford University.
A cute avenue in town- I kind of like it blurry!
A photographic review of my week in Oxford! I went on a long walk through town and out into the countryside, snapping photos at rapid speed. I also went on a walking tour of Oxford today, and the guide pointed out all the spots where Lewis and his literary group The Inklings met. The tour included Magdalen College, where he taught for most of his career. Inside the college grounds is Addison’s Walk, and it was on that walk that Lewis officially converted to Christianity. He walked with Tolkien and Dyson, who talked to him about the nature of myth and how the Christian story fulfills all other myths. At the start, he was not a Christian, and at the end he was. I can’t say I had any grand epiphanies- but it sure was relaxing and beautiful!
I loved loved loved Oxford when I visited a good friend there last year! He gave me the tour and I fell in love with the town! I want to move there one day, so badly!! Your photos are beautiful! 🙂
It is such a cool city! Everywhere you turn is something gorgeous! I think I took more pictures there than the whole of my four week trip combined haha 🙂
