Was there only one world after all which spent its time dreaming of others?

In the last few days before term ended I suddenly realised that I hadn't, in the last few years, taken any photos of Oxford at all. It's bizarre really as it's such a photogenic place and I'm so in love with it but truth be told, we have a friend who has a very good camera and is the "photographer" of our group so I just got into the habit of not taking photos. So on my very last day my friends and I went on a long walk around my favourite parts of Oxford and my lovely college and I snapped away, knowing I wouldn't be seeing the place for several months. It's kind of bittersweet looking at these again, but it's such a glorious place that I'm happy to share my home with you all :) The bench is from the Botanical Gardens and was mentioned in The Amber Spyglass and the last four photos of are of my college and its grounds.

I think most of my photos from Oxford are pictures of coffees I enjoyed.
