Everyday happenings...

Well in England we have discovered that flushing the toilet can be a bit of scavenger hunt. Yes that's right. Sometimes it is on the back of the toilet like normal, others a button on top, or a pull string from the ceiling, or even a button next to it on the wall. Makes for quite the adventure. Another fun fact is that there are places where you have to pay to use the public water closet (bathroom). One of my personal goals is to never have to pay to use the loo. Ha I might even consider it one of my human rights to not have to pay. We will see.

We went to the botanical gardens of Oxford today and Christ Church Cathedral where Harry Potter was filmed.  Both are well worth a trip back. The gardens were gorgeous so much so that I cannot wait to go in the spring when flowers from all over the world will be blooming. Christ Church is where the Great Hall in Harry Potter was filmed and we will go back another day when the tour is open at the right time.

It will be covered in Roses in the spring. Solid rose bush for blocks!

We passed by many musicians on the streets but the bagpiper was indeed my favorite ;)
