We packed a lot of activity into this weekend. We left thursday after tutorial right away for Folkstone in the south of England. We got in around 5:30 PM after 4 hours of travel and because of day light savings it looked more like 9:00 PM. We checked into our hotel, which was wonderfully accommodating and hauntingly authentic. We walked around Folkstone and ate at The Chamber. The town was weird. We couldn’t really explain why, but their was just an odd feeling that you couldn’t help but to pick up on as you walked around. This complimented Halloween quite well though. On friday we travelled to Canterbury. It was wonderful to see the cathedral, but the town was much more commercialized than we anticipated. We left early for Rye. Rye was a refreshing place. Very authentic. We left late and headed back to Folkstone to spend another night. On saturday we travelled to Dover to hike the white cliffs and watch the wild ponies. It was amazing. Dover is a beautiful place. We left just in time as the weather quickly became ominous. We headed back to Oxford and were glad to be home for Halloween, which turned out to be another adventure.
