Oxford, Abingdon, & London

The group arrives in London!

Today we left York in the morning to see Oxford. We saw many university buildings that were very old and pretty. Then we departed to see Josh R's grandfathers museum. His grandfather discovered his store was built on old roman and English houses. When he had tried to renovate his store he found traces of these houses, so he kept digging. He found all sorts of old artifacts that suggested that this was a house for English merchants due to the loads of jars. The depth of where the artifacts were found suggested that people had been living there for around 2500 years. After that visit we went to London and walked the Hyde park. To get to dinner we took a double decker bus to a fish and chips shop. We saw a lot of cool stuff today.
