Oxford. Now that was an interesting time… I started off by meeting up with my CS host Erin. She was nice and showed me around town a bit. Got some neat pictures with George (the monkey) at the top of one of the towers and I grabbed lunch at the turf tavern, which is apparently pretty famous. Around 5 or so I met up with some other CSers at a carnival/fair thing that happened to be going on. Good timing on my part to visit Oxford. It was a pretty big, free, event that has a bunch of local bands and djs playing in this massive field. Hilarity ensued. Ended up hanging out with a Brit, an Austrian and a South African which was a lot of fun. There’s a joke there somewhere…
Per usual, I’m travelling. This time I’m on a train to London… My final destination before going home. I’m going to try and meet up with some redditors and maybe some CSers to celebrate ‘mericuh. I’m sitting at a table on the train and the lady sitting across from me is using almost the whole thing. She just plopped down and started plugging into ALL of the outlets and takes out this massive laptop, etc.
I’ll try and find an appropriate picture from yesterday and post it. Can’t do that offline, and the train doesn’t have wifi. Probably should have taken the bus from Oxford to London, oh well.
Oh, and I got a gplus account, so I’m looking forward to messing with that when I get home.
