Our first day in Oxford

Our first day in Oxford was very funny and creative but we have to say that it was a bit tiring. As first thing we saw the enormous University situated in a very big park with a lots of green and a lake with two ducks.The weather was sunny but very cold.We walked for a long time while we took lots of pictures.We visited the most ancient pub called "The Bear" built in 1242. We also visited the covered market where we saw many typical English shops. Our guides were our new English teachers Rebecca and Jane. They went crazy because of us, streets were very crowded and it was quite dangerous because in Italy drivers are on the opposite side so we weren't used to it.We saw also the English buses that are different from ours...they're bigger and more colourful.We went to a typical grocery shop where we bought two chocolate chips cookies....they were excellent!!!! For us it was a wonderful day...we had great time and we hope that will be the same for the entire stay although we know it will be!!!

I'm glad you liked the chocolate chip cookies. They are quite popular here in England. I'm sure you'll get the chance to try lots of other kinds of biscuits too.
