Your memories capture England well. Cricket season is beginning and we're enjoying the pubs.<br /><br />Troutbirder, your students were lucky to have such an enthusiastic chaperone. It must have been a memorable trip.<br /><br />Hoover, I enjoyed your virtual dog walk too.<br /><br />VP, you must have fond memories from your time in Oxford.<br /><br />Cue, I hope your snow has melted by now. There is still some snow left in Maine, according to neighbors back home.Sarah Laurencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00423008641739156182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259325291907281485.post-2645852687751853902017-03-20T16:35:49.185-04:002017-03-20T16:35:49.185-04:00Beautiful photos.

Your Maine photos reminded me of winter trips down to Dorset - not as cold, but there's a similar beauty in deserted winter beach scenes and sunsets there :)VPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02732971362066784175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259325291907281485.post-6023191047762174992017-03-11T19:33:33.979-05:002017-03-11T19:33:33.979-05:00Great walk off!

We have a similar option not far from our Minnesota home...albeit without and ocean views...:) I had a high school group in London one spring some years ago.

There are no crowds, and yes here too, you can let the dogs go. No worries about mine going in the water, they hate to get wet. I love what you said about bad weather and bad clothes; it seems to me something very New England to say. I also love Oxford. On my one and only trip to England we spent several nights there, and I had a bit of free time to explore. Fond memories of a long walk through town, along the river, stopping at pubs, and then watching my first cricket game - all spontaneous and very English.
