Summertime in Oxford

It's been a pretty relaxed July here in Oxford. The weather this month started out sunny and warm and actually summery. Lately, it's been really grey, but the rain has been minimal and the temperature and humidity still up. Before August hits, I just thought I'd touch on a few things we've been up to this month.

This photo of the Thames River in London, is after the OBA London Ball I attended in June. Such a great example of the amazing place we live and work in right now in our lives!

Went to London on a Friday afternoon for Brian's favorite band at a summer festival at Hyde Park - Pearl Jam!

There was a perfect Friday afternoon of punting down the Cherwell River - one of the best things to do in Oxford ever. Of course it was with multiple punts of physicists, but means I can just sit back and enjoy!

We took a couple of picnics with friends in the University Park, which is a favorite British summer past time.

For the first time, we went bowling in the UK. Pretty much exactly the same over here as it is back home. But they don't call air hockey, air hockey - it's called air football (soccer)!
