Day 53: Blenheim Palace and Warwick Castle

The benefits of being an OPUS student is that there are about 2-3 trips that they offer over the course of the term. Blenheim Palace and Warwick Castle is the first of the four we have. The last one is a party and thus does not count as a trip. The 2^nd one is to Bath and Stonehenge and the 3^rd one is to Cambridge.

Nonetheless, we spent the first half of the day in Blenheim Palace where in this picture was taken. If you look straight down the railing, you see the entrance of the palace. It was hard for me to pick a picture for this day and this was the one I chose.

The 2^nd half was spent on Warwick Castle. This was more of a tourist haven castle. However, I did get to see a "witch" shot off the trebuchet and it was an amazing sight.

When we got back, I grabbed myself a latte from the Missing Bean and I was in love. Their coffee is amazing. Café Nero and The Missing Bean by far have the best coffees I have tried in Oxford.

Words from the wise, however, is that don't go to the OPUS trip if you have a paper due on Sundays at 2pm and haven't finished the reading yet. Whenever you find yourself enjoying, you're brought back to the fact that you have a paper due. Not fun. Not fun at all.
