Completely done

It is Saturday night/ Sunday morning and I can now safely say that the semester is finished. We had our play on Friday night. It had a very good first half and we were feeling good after the interval, but in the second half we made a few more mistakes. The crowd was really into it though ooo-ing and laughing. I managed to get a recording of the second half which I haven't seen all of but I am sure it will be very funny. After the performance we had a celebration party and almost died laughing at some of the footage from the second half.

Today we went to the church in the morning to get it all cleaned up. We had finished by about lunch time and Beth and I went into Oxford to try to print her pictures. We failed yet again and will try to do it in London. On the bright side the weather has been absolutely perfect, 20 degree weather with lots of sun and not a cloud in the sky. It feels like summer. In Oxford we stumbled upon the Oxford Literary Festival. There was a really big white tent which was pretty much a book store which had some book signings and drinks and stuff. It wasn't that great so we just went and walked around down a nice path and down to a river. We walked up the river and found our way through town on a different route than we had ever taken, towards Primark so Beth could get sunglasses.

After Oxford we went walking down a footpath along the Charlbury countryside. It ended up being quite a long and adventurous walk. We almost had to turn back but figured out that we actually were allowed to walk through the fields with the sheep in them. We then came upon a sheep that was trapped on the wrong side of the fence. After much stress and effort we got the gate opened and the lamb through it and reunited with the mother. After that we walked through another field with cows and horses in it. Walked around ponds, saw hills, almost walked through a rich person's backyard (they had an outdoor grass badminton court), walked across a pond on a small plank, climbed a lookout tower thing and did lots of walking. It was an amazing walking adventure and I am very glad to have experienced the English countryside.

Tomorrow will be church and making sure everything is packed and then Monday we leave bright and early for London and then Paris.
