Dear Pia, as you can see, we have not vanished from this planet but, unfortunately, our schedule was mostly so packed that I couldn't bring myself to writing the blog as well. Anyway, I promised to tell you about what the course looked like after the very strenuous first days and I can tell you they turned up with bright eyes and rosy cheeks, eager to continue our exploration of the British Isles ...
Today, we took a train to the City of the Dreaming Spires, Oxford. The journey was very pleasant and due to the very competent guides we had a nice stroll along the many colleges. Most of your fellows seemed to like what they saw - but everybody was, of course, disappointed that we could visit neither Christ Church nor any other college as all had their doors closed! So, my fascination with this beautiful was not shared by everybody.
We then took an afternoon train back to London and went straight to St. Paul's Cathedral to enjoy Evensong. But this turned out to be the second disappointment this day as for reasons unknown to us they didn't do a sung Evensong which, of course, took away much of the fascination of this otherwise most beautiful place. But as you know your fellows they simply decided to call it ady and went off for their many nightly activities secretly hidden from their teacher ( for good reason!). I myself decide that this day deserved an update, bought me a ticket and enjoyed the musical We will rock you - so at least I had a grand night out!
