Back in London

Good evening from London.  We are back at our original hotel for the duration.

This morning we went to the University of Oxford - absolutely beautiful.  Becky gave us a walking tour and then groups went on free time.  My group went to have lunch at a small pub called The Eagle and the Child......the significance of this particular pub is that J.R.R. Tolkien used to meet with some of his fellow writers here to discuss lit.

We then took the long bus ride back to Watford to check into our hotel.  We took the transport in to London and spent an hour at the British Museum.  This was amazing but very chaotic......there were a lot of people.  We found that the rain made the tube busier as well and it was extremely difficult to move the group together.

We had dinner together at an Induan restaurant which was by far the best meal of the week and headed back to the hotel.

Tomorrow we will be at the Tower of London in the AM.  I'm about to go check on lights out.  Good night.
