22-24 th OXFORD

After arriving in Oxford we´re having a hard time finding somewhere to sleep. But after some calling and a visit to the tourist information. We find somwhere to sleep for 2 nights.
Oxford is a neat town and of course we are visiting the colleges. First we start with Magdalen College. Teh most beautiful of them all. The college was founded in 1458 by the bishop of Winchester, a lot of famous people have been studying at this college like Oscar Wilde, CS Lewis, T.E. Lawrence, J.Paul Getty and so on.
More famous people that I haven´t heard of...




They say C.S Lewis inspiration to Narnia came from these statues.










I wouldn't mind studying here myself.

After an interesting visit we are up for coffee and cakes



our hotel for the nights

Carpet in the bathroom, not that nice...

19th -22 th CARDIFF and a trip to Bath

Our hotel in Cardiff

After checking in we have lunch at Nandos. Yummi Peri-Peri chicken at it best. Your choice of how spicy you want it I had it hot my brother medium. This is our new favourite restaurant.
Mermaid quay the waterfront. We walk around for a while but it's pretty cold and windy. After some walking we return to our hotel for some sleep.

The next morning we visit Cardiff castle.A castle with a history that dates back 2000 years to the Romans.

Cardiff is known for it's many Victorian arcades.


Later on we decide to go for a long walk to the small village Llandaff. It't such a pretty small village. With the Llandaff cathedral in the centre. The cathedral was badly damage during the World War 2. It takes us the wole afternoon to walk back and forth but it's really worth it.


Early morning we go on an excursion to Royal Bath the home to Jane Austen. Our prime stop is Roman Bath. On our way on my brother break the zipper on his raincoat he got to tear it up. Can't help it but I think is pretty funny he's not. Bath is a lovely town I could have spend some more time here. But we only have a day and it's really pouring down. My brothers raincoat is not working that well since the zipper still is broken. We start of with a walk to The Royal Crescent. Residental houses built beetwen 1767-1774 it's one of the greatest example of Georgian architecture too be found in Great Britain. A lot of films and tv shows has been filmed on this loccation.


Then it's time for one of the best museum during this tour. Roman Bath ia a well preserved Roman site forpublic bathing. It has natural hot springs underneath the city.




The next day our journey continues to Oxford the home to J.R.R Tolkien, CS Lewis and Lewis Carolle
