Oxford with Helen, Dan and Cameron

Ah, Oxford... The refuge of England's intellectual elite as well as thousands of gawking tourists. Helen, Dan, Cameron, Casie and I threw in our lot with the latter half and toured around Oxford for a few hours on a Sunday. It was actually not nearly as crowded as we had expected and had a lot of open areas for walking. We saw roughly half of the 40+ colleges in Oxford, including the newest one (only a few centuries old). We were welcomed to this college by a tall Englishman who found it impossible to end a conversation. He just trailed off saying 'yes... quite... hmph...' over and over. Dan and I weren't really sure what to do.

The day was fun and good times were had by all. We had a nice lunch on the river, complete with extra-spicy mustard and good beer. Later, as you can see below, Helen put Cameron in the gallows and was immediately given 'Saint' status. I'd say they both deserved what they got!
