B&B Visit

Stratford was cute. Saw Shakespeare's grave and sat in the cemetery and read with Holly. It seems it's more acceptable to chill in places of death in this country.

"A Comedy of Errors" was very good. I got into a conversation with a cute older British couple...Their son is an actor who has a role in a new King Richard film.

Today we stopped in Oxford. We managed to find the church where various scenes from Harry Potter were filmed. The cast was there shooting for about 4 weeks. Britt was so excited, we had to create a "no screaming" rule. Jumping up and down was still allowed though. Personally, I happily entertained the thought that I was breathing the same air as Alan Rickman.

The best part for me, was finding a pub called The Eagle and Child. J.R.R. Tolken, C.S. Lewis and others used to chill there every Tuesday morning. I was happy to have a good conversation there for an hour or so.

Tonight I plan to chill and do some reading.

I actually have to go to class tomorrow.

The struggle to schedule for classes at Chatham continues.

I do, however, have a third floor apartment all arranged.
