Last weekend ICLC took a fantastic trip to Warwick Castle, Stratford Upon Avon, and Oxford. Warwick was beautiful. It is a full on castle. It was like being transported back in time. Also, my friends and I were almost murdered by a peacock.
Stratford upon Avon was probably my favorite place that we have visited so far. Not only is it an adorable little town but it is filled with so much history (and obviously Shakespeare stuff). It was also super fun because it gave me the chance to hang out with people who I hadn't seen since the first weeks and I was able to make new friends.
One of the greatest parts of the weekend was when we saw the Royal Shakespeare Company's production of Love's Labour's Lost. Everything about it was amazing and it is my favorite show so far this semester.
Stratford was also really great for food and markets! We went to a wonderful Thai restaurant that was called (I'm not even joking) The Giggling Squid. It was possibly the most delicious food I have ever had and almost everything on the menu was gluten free! The market in Stratford was also so much fun. I found perfect Christmas presents for a few people and also some delicious snacks.
Oxford was pretty cool. We only had a few hours so we didn't get to see much of it but the few places we did see were pretty cool.
Sorry that is has been taking a while to post some updates (and that they are obviously written quickly). It's the week before midterms so everything is crazy! After the week is over I will have plenty of time to write about everything!
xoxo,
Kaity
