Stopover, part A: Oxford

A six-hour flight (British Airways) and one-hour bus ride brought us to Oxford. We stayed with the lovely S (Thanks, S!), though not before a requisite stop at Kebab Kid (J spent a summer at Oxford and got a kick out of revisiting his old haunts). Such a quaint town provided a great chance to unwind a little and enjoy time with friends.


It wasn't completely unproductive, either. I got a chance to check out the economics department at the university, including sitting in on some classes and chatting with one of the advisors for the Economics for Development program for which I'm thinking of applying (again- thanks, S!)
