This post is a transition from our time in Hampshire and surrounding counties to our trip into London for the second part of our travels. We rented a car for our first six days of travel, which was an adventure in itself, and then utilized London's famed public transportation network to get around the city. The kids especially loved our trips on the London Underground.
While in Oxford, we visited the prestigious university, as well as the famed Eagle and Child pub, where the writing group known as "The Inklings" which included C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien, met over pints to discuss their works.
Mentioned in many a Jane Austen novel, and famous on its own for its historic Roman Baths, the city of Bath in Somerset has much to do and see. In addition to the Roman Baths, we walked the Pulteney Bridge that spans the River Avon and, of course, we paid a visit to the Jane Austen Centre.
