day two

on tuesday we boarded the coaches again bound for oxford, stratford upon avon, and warwick castle. oxford was alot of fun because it was our first taste of english higher education which if i could say so is slightly different than american college. the buildings there are older than chadron state college for sure and some even older than chadron itself. ha. i really enjoyed the drive to stratford from oxford because we got to see the countryside and our tour guide did an awesome job of keeping us entertained with a bit of history on the way. darren and i had a chance to eat at the pub where shakespeare died, and despite that gruesome history the food and pints were very good. warwick castle was awe inspiring to say the least...i love old things especially if they havent been dressed up for tourists :( like the old hinges that used to hold the gates on the entrance...fascinating...
