7th July OXFORD DAY


OXFORD DAY

Today we woke up at 7am very excited. Today we were going to Oxford!
Firstly, we had breakfast; we ate a toast with butter and jam, milk with cereals and biscuits.
After breakfast, we took the train to go from Perry Bar to New Street. Then we went to Moor Street and we took the train to Oxford. In Banbury we met the people from Leamington and we took a bus. The bus travelled to Oxford. There we another breakfast: a croissant with a “Kitkat” and an orange juice.
When we arrived to Oxford, we did a tour in the city. We had some explanations in each stop and we visited a lot of places. We started with the Christ College, the university that inspired Harry Potter books and films. After taking some pictures we saw some people playing cricket in a field and some people giving food to the ducks. The next stop was Saint Mary’s Church. There were bells that were ringing all the time!!! The other stop in the same square was the Radcliff monument. It was a building that was like a circle. The next stop was another part of the University of Oxford. Then, we stopped to have lunch in a “park”. We ate the wraps that we prepared yesterday. They were delicious!!! We also had chips and water.
After lunch, we went to a library that was very big and nice. There were a lot of books. To continue, we had some free time to buy souvenirs. We went shopping and bought some Oxford jumpers, clothes, teddy bears, keyrings, wands and other Harry Potter object.
After some shopping we visited “The Covered Market” and we ate homemade cookies. Then we walked to through the main street and some us bought “Squishies”. Then we returned to the bus stop and we travelled to Banbury.
In Banbury we took the train that brought us to Birmingham. In Birmingham we took another train to go to Perry Bar.
We went to the Den to had dinner. We ate chicken hamburgers, pasta and fries. For dessert we took fruit and cake. After that, we chatted with our friends, we also saw what the others had bought in Oxford. Then, we returned to the accommodation and we had a shower.
We are very tired today! But it was fantastic!!!
Good night,

Elsa and Mark
