Welcome!

Welcome to the blog that I have created to help chronicle and share my trip to Europe with the GT Oxford Program. Throughout the trip, I will post pictures and reflections of the different sites that I am fortunate to be able to see on this incredible journey!

Oxford and Dublin Pictures!

 We used the "Chunnel" to go under the English Channel... basically we drove the charter bus into a box car and then the whole line of box cars goes through a tunnel that runs under the English Channel. Not really a comforting thought to me at all...
 

The GT banner hanging on the fence of the Oxford Worchester campus. Moments after snapping this photo the Program Director of the portion of the program in Oxford got on the bus and our job was done! Such a relief!


This is the main "quad" of the Oxford campus where the students stay. That grass is absolutely untouchable.

 Just some of the gardens on the campus. So beautiful!

This is my travel buddy Dana with all of our bags at Heathrow before we boarded our flight to Dublin. Not too bad considering the amount of time we traveled! 

Drinking my first (and most likely last) Guinness at the Storehouse in Dublin. Highly recommend this tour stop if you are ever in Dublin, the view from the bar there is awesome! 

Our hair dryer in Dublin was mounted in the drawer of the desk at the hotel... Those Europeans- so quirky!


Just one in a series of many photos I took with things that said "Knight"

St. Patrick's Cathedral
