Finally I'm getting around to posting some pics from my vacation! I had so many to choose from, so I'll just show a few. I'm not the best photographer, but the locations speak for themselves. Hope you like them!
First, Windsor Castle, the largest castle used as a residence in (Europe? the world? Now I can't remember which):
And the fancy McDonald's across the street (didn't see the queen eating there, though):
Here are some black swans, a famous attraction in Dawlish:
The ruins of an almshouse in Exeter:
Exeter Cathedral:
Not to be outdone by McDonald's, an even fancier Krispy Kreme in Oxford:
One of those fascinating, ornate details you see everywhere you turn in England, especially Oxford:
The Bridge of Sighs in Oxford (forget why it's called that):
A bit of a really wonderful, ancient pub in Oxford called the Turf Tavern...I couldn't capture how charming it is, but I liked the moss on this part of the roof:
I didn't manage to take a photo that really captured the ancient-yet-modern European feel of the places we went. This one sorta gives you an idea, I hope:
Photos of England (at last!)
