England

Here I am in England... having just been to Oxford yesterday, thinking I should do a quick blog. There is a tie here to Disney. Not only with our love of Winnie the Pooh, or Peter Pan and Tinkerbell... there is also Lewis Carroll and C.S. Lewis. We were in ChristChurch at Oxford and went into the garden where Alice used to play. She was a real little girl. I have forgotten some of the story... and may need to go back. Sadly we couldnt see a few things there as they were closed off for now. But I could sense the magic there (and not just because parts of Harry Potter have been filmed there). Also known author from there that Carroll was friends with... Tolken!

The night we arrived I was in London. I went to go ride the London Eye but we missed the last flight. That was fine. When we came out from the underground... we came up to find the Clock Tower that houses Big Ben! Absolutely Beautiful!!!!!!!!! Lit up and also chimed. Didnt see Tink or Peter flying around there... but I did imagine them there.
