Day 20, Friday, July 25 - final day in Oxford

Today, Friday, is our last day in Oxford.   We started the morning off by going across the street from Brasenose to St. Mary’s Church.   We climbed to the top of the church tower and had a wonderful view of all of Oxford.  Followed by that, we went back to the classroom to catch up on some journal entries on the past couple of days.  After that, we touched up on some more code breaking, and Mr. Kendall gave us some codes that we could break on the plane if we ever got bored.  Once we were through with that, we read more newspapers to see what’s going on in Britain, (and the world).  After all of that, we discussed our plans for traveling and what we needed to do before we left Brasenose.  We all printed our boarding passes, got back our passports, and started to get all of our belongings together.   In the afternoon, we all were able to do our own thing.  Some people got presents for their family members, while others just relaxed in the part and did their thing.  For dinner, we had a banquet in the Medieval Dining Hall and it was bittersweet.  We are all now packing for our voyage back to the US, which is sad, yet happy, because we all have had a great time here.
