The Hertford college bridge taken from an angle. We nearly went
all around oxford looking for this. We had seen a picture of it
in the Youth Hostel and looked on the back of the photo to see what
it was. We knew what it whas but we didn't know where, so we just
walked around the corner and we found it. |

This is a bike park. Everyone had
bikes in Oxford because it was very flat. I had never seen so many
bikes in one place at a time. They even had seperate roads for bikes
to go on. |

The All Souls college.
Taken from the top of the Cathedral. The two towers at the back
are the Hawksmoors Towers. This is so beuatiful that I would definetly
live here than in a castle, anyway, the castle was pretty much destroyed
in one of the various wars they had around this area. |

Gargoyles
on the wall of a college. These were probably fairly recently carverd
because when most of the gargoyles you see were made they didn't
really have studies on animals and they always looked at animals
as "not worth knowing about" things.
- (left-right) A Mongoose fighting with a Cobra, a persons face
and a Chameleon
- (left-right) A persons face, two dung beetles rolling a ball
of dung and another persons face. On the same wall as 1.

The Giant Anteater at
the Natural History Museum. When I was in London in 2000 I bought
a soft toy anteater at the Natural History Museum. I named her Sarah
after another anteater, in one of Gerald Durrels books, who was called
Sarah Hug-a-sack because she was a baby and her mother had been killed
and she would hug a sack instead of hugging her mother. |
I am standing in front
of the Mammoth that they used in the mostly computer animated film
'Walking with Beasts.' afterward when I was in Edinbourgh I bought
A soft toy Mammoth from a science fiction bookshop. It was right next
to one of the best (in my opinion) fossil shops in the world. |
