8424 Hamburger and Chips, Oxford style. The English are making great strides in their understanding of beef and in particular hamburgers. This was delicious. Now if we could just stop them from eating their fries with mayonnaise.
8429 This is the lentil over the Jesus College Main Gate. The green shield with the three golden antlered deer is the college coat-of-arms, the one to the left looks very English but I'm not sure specifically what and the one in the center with the three feathers and crown I've seen used as a seal of approval by the Prince of Wales. It does appear to have Welsh writing on the red band below the crown.
8443 The top of Broad Street showing Exeter College, the Sheldonian Theater and the Old Oxford University Publishing House.
8449 The Martyrs' Monument.
8452 The Eagle and Child. This is the meeting place of the Inklings, a group of academics and writers from Oxford that included C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkein.
8465 The Crown, a posh restaurant/pub next to McDonald's. Talk about the sublime and ridiculous. But at The Crown's prices, I'm not sure which is the rediculous.
