My sister, Marcie, is here to visit for the week- a very special interlude in my busy term! Most days, she's hit the museums while I am in class then met me for coffee or a walk around downtown or the sprawling park near my residence... and we've had dinner together every day. She also came to my University classes with me Monday, and attended a session at my OCCA training program on Wednesday- so as to get the full sense of my experience here! She's been very patient with how busy I am and I am grateful to have such an understanding visitor!
I am excited about tomorrow and Saturday, when I am free to spend the whole day with her. We plan to visit C.S. Lewis' house, see a few of Oxford's most architecturally rich colleges, walk through Christchurch meadows to the river, and spend an afternoon at Blenheim Palace-Winston Churchill's birthplace- just outside of town.
