After that, we went to White Horse, a super old chalk horse in the hillside. You can't really see it from the ground, but here's a link of a picture from the air:

Here's my far less interesting picture.
Next to the White Horse hill, there is a smaller hill, which is where the legendary St. George is said to have slayed the dragon. It was kind of a difficult hike down White Horse (I felt like the girl in Leap Year for some of it, minus the Irish guy), but going up to the top of that hill was way cool.
(This is where the dragon died)
After Uffington, we headed to Oxford. It's such a cool city! There are about 40 separate colleges that are part of Oxford University, sprinkled through the city. We wandered around and saw some of the coolest spots. The colleges there are amazing! The architecture is incredible and everything is just so old! I love it. I don't know how I'll go back to BYU after seeing it. We went to the evensong service at Christ Church Cathedral, which was beautiful.
(This sign just cracked me up)
(This is the pub where Tolkien and C.S. Lewis would hang out)
On the way back from Oxford, we stopped in a little town called Stow-on-Wold. It's a very classic idyllic English town, with cute houses, bed and breakfasts, and a great little church. We even found a fish and chips shop that was showing the Germany-Spain game in the World Cup semifinals (yay Spain!). It was great.
