It's strange to think that the first of my two terms here in Oxford is already more than halfway over. But it means that there are some fun travels coming up, and I thought I'd share them.
This weekend I'm off to Dublin (flights are incredibly inexpensive!). I've only got a few days there, so I'll have to return some other time to see the north, where the Hendren side of the family finds its ancestral county (in Armagh).
Then, after 8th Week, the last week of term, I'm taking a train up through England and into the wily country of Scotland. I'll see Edinburgh and maybe some of the Highlands. And next it's off to Paris for four days--Paris!--before taking an 18-hour flight back to the U.S. for a month of vacation.
Who knows what next term holds (besides a brilliant explosion of spring color in Oxford, I'm promised). But I do know what the next few weeks and months will be, and the prognosis looks very, very good.
