Crossing the Thames river on the way home from church.














Here we are at the famous bridge of sighs.  It is apparently copied from a famous bridge in Venice. 



















We took advantage of one of our nice days here and went punting on the Cherwell.  The boats or punts are long, narrow and quite unstable.  The kids were a little nervous, but they grew to love it.  You propel the punt with a long pole.  Takes a bit to get it all figured!










School is finally in for the kids and they love it.  Here they are cheesing it up before heading off on their bikes.

Here are the kids sitting outside our new home showing off their brand new wellies.  Lucy has on her cute hat, and trust me, she is very aware of how cute she is.

My kids loved Sophie and Riley's school bags. They want to know if Sophie and Riley have to wear a uniform to school like they do?
