Strawberry Picking and Oxford

On Saturday morning we headed to Oxford.  On the way we stopped by a strawberry patch and picked some of the best strawberries I've EVER eaten!





 We stopped for a picnic lunch break and our #1 duck fan followed this mama and her ducklings.
 We enjoyed an afternoon wandering around Oxford.  It was an honor to walk the same streets as literary icons Lewis Carroll, J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, and Dr. Seuss.


 A special shop dedicated to Alice in Wonderland
 An afternoon tea and cake break
 We toured the beautiful campus of Trinity College



 A family race in the courtyard
 The famous Bridge of Sighs
 We were on a mission to find a great tradition pub for a pint and fish & chips for dinner.  The Chequers was just the place! The fireplace and some of the carved stonework has been there since the 1500s. 
 YUM!
 Two tired kiddos...
