Part 4 and the last photos of Oxford...Motivated by the right and left brain...
As we prepared to depart Oxford we got this final shot. |
The sky in the UK is ever changing. |
Here's the link to the 30 second test if you'd like to try it.
Romantic, creative, emotional on the right; practical, mathematical, factual on the left. That somewhat unscientific test may have been correct after all. I loved Paris as a "dream" of Paris. Once there, my practical left brain took over.
The varying colors of the row buildings created a charming feel in the village of Oxford. |
London, on the other hand is a more left brain city. It just makes sense to us. People are more friendly and dignified, its easier to get around, the taxes aren't as high, and most of all, we feel welcomed.

The alter at St. Mary the Virgin, University Church. |
A walkway between college buildings. |
We took this photo for Tom to send to a former co-worker with the same last name, minus the "e" at the end. |
As long as there are shops and food the tourists will find it, even on the side streets. |
Hertford Bridge, the "Bridge of Sighs" in Oxford is similar to the "Bridge of Sighs" we saw while in Venice last summer. |
One more departing shot of the Radcliffe Camera (meaning "room") building. |
A side street in Oxford of little interest to tourists. |
One can only imagine the merchandise for sale in this store 325 years ago. |

Photo from one year ago today, August 24, 2013
With the Internet finally working the following day, we had one more day without a post. Tomorrow, it will be easy going forward when we were able to post almost each day with photos with only a few days without service over the next year.
