I spent the whole day with James and Brittany, it was a very relaxing day.
First, we went to the Ashmolean Museum. Not only is it the oldest public museum in Europe, but it was free! So we hung out there for a few hours and just kind of looked around. Then we spent the rest of the day in the city- watching street performers, exploring, doing a little shopping, talking about religion, politics, travel, philosophy... the 3 of us have so many similar interests, we could talk forever. It's fantastic.
Eventually we came across Oxford's only hat shop, known as The Hat Box, and let me just say I found trouble. I forced myself out once my side-braid was totally obliterated from fascinator headbands. The Queen's Diamond Jubilee (the 60th anniversary of her coronation) is June 5th, and I'm making it a priority. I may have been seduced into the world of comfy of yoga pants and oversized hoodies to the point where I will never look "smart" by Oxford standards, but I figure if only for one day I can go all-out British. I've always loved hats, but I never get the chance to wear them. I'm taking full advantage of this opportunity.
