Beutiful City


Hello, how is everyone today?
I had the most wonderful weekend, and its Bank Holiday in England so I get today (Monday) off! Spend most of Saturday bumming about, fed my mom in laws cat, that creature is the worst cat in the world! She is self- centred, shy, wont let you see her let alone touch her, what is the point of having a cat if she wont sit and purr in your lap! On Sunday my husband and I went to Oxford. It is the first time I have seen Oxford, so I was a proper tourist, taking pictures with my phone (I forgot the camera on the coffee table…). It is such a beautiful town, most of the buildings in the centre are so old, the architecture is a mix of gothic cathedrals, and old A-frame houses, stone Victorian villas, and others that are a mix because they have been rebuild on several occasions. As you can imagine there are students everywhere, it’s a town of posh restaurants and cafes, many bookstores (YAY!), and pedestrians. It’s difficult to actually drive, and even more difficult and expensive to park. It cost us £7 for 4 hours! For the Americans that is $14! Its robbery I tell you! I cannot wait to move there, which should be some time by the end of the year, if all goes well. We are in the process of buying the loveliest 3-bedroom house in a small village right outside Oxford. It has lakes, a riding trail, a cycling train, a gym that is literally outside my front door, yay no more having to walk for 20 min till I get to the gym! Its lovely! Very English country-side. And next year if all goes well I will be able to start University and do my Japanese Studies! I am off to cook lunch!

Ciao!
