Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak! Thank you!" - Dumbledore in the Great Hall, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone


For our group trip we went to Warwick Castle and Oxford. Warwick had a long history, but had been commercialized so not as authentic as I would’ve liked. The resident peacocks kept us entertained for hours.

Oxford had the hustle and bustle of a college community (packed with tourists…Elon doesn’t seem to have the same tourism industry…). Zana and I split a fish dish in the White Horse pub and then walked around the covered market. A sweater may have been bought. On sale.

We did see the entrance to the Great Hall where Harry Potter was shot, but the “queue” and “price” kept us from going in. Buggah.

Spotted 1 of 3 “gingers”…where are these people? I thought the UK was littered with them…
