Short Break

Just had a brief visit to the daughter who is a librarian. I'll see if I can find a picture or two.
 What a lovely old quadrangle.  Part of where she works. This is the picture without the large group of Japanese people taking pictures.

 In the covered market, there is a shop that makes exquisitely decorated cakes. We loved this one - something of the feel of the Western Isles about it.

 The Ashmolean is closed on Mondays - who knew that? So we couldn't get back to where we left off the last time. Instead we went for a walk in Christchurch  Meadows, where the squirrels are very laid back. This one looks as though it is about to make a speech.


 Looking back at some dreaming spires.
And then looking down at some reflections with autumn leaves sprinkled.

Just catching up on this - love the cheeky little squirrel. The rest just makes me feel homesick! Our architecture tends to be boringly rectangular and lacking in history.
The cake is amazing - but do people actually eat them?
