So FINAL post of the day!!! I just did so much this week I can't believe it! Yesterday my study abroad group and I traveled to Oxford and Bleinham Palace. The Palace was magnificent, my favorite part was learning that Conseula Vanderbilt lived there after she married the Duke! She lived in one of my favorite Newport Mansions! We had a personal tour of the palace and then were sent off to explore the expansive gardens on our own. My friend Eric and I found a waterfall with an adorable little cottage next to it! After that we had lunch in the town next to the palace. Then off to my new favorite town...OXFORD! I am telling you people I AM IN LOVE! I never thought I could love a town more than Little Compton but it may have just happened. We had a tour of Oxford University and part of the town. Other than the fact that it was mind numbingly cold, it was amazing! I seem to use that word a lot.... Well anyway Oxford is almost completely stone buildings with every single one of them looking like they were straight out of harry potter, and some of them were. During our free time, we explored a 7 story bookstore and found these awesome second hand books. We also got some tea to try to warm up. But anyway not the point...I am starting my application now because I am going to Oxford for graduate school! IT WILL HAPPEN! I AM TELLING YOU! Gah I miss it already. Well ta ta for now.
