first weekend in the UK

I spent the weekend visiting Cambridge and Oxford. Having walked around Cambridge already, I will still struck by how magnificent the buildings in Oxford are.

{The chapel of King's college in Cambridge. Described by Wordsworth as "this immense and glorious work of fine intelligence!"}

We also walked around Clare college, because it happened to be open to visitors that day.

In Oxford, I visited Christ Church college, where parts of the Harry Potter movies were filmed.

In between my sightseeing, I also managed to try my hand at cooking. Mind you, I don't mean any of this English overcooked vegetables/ extremely dry roast nonsense.
