Saturday was Noora's birthday, so we all went punting! It's kind of like an English Gondela. You start on the banks of the river by Magdelen College and go down past St. Hilda's College, and then Christ Church Meadows. It was really fun.
The boat dock at Magdelen college. Pronounced 'Maudlin'... just in case you ever show up here.
This is a pic noora took from her boat. Thats me in the blonde.
Allison working hard. In punting, someone stands on one end of the boat and pushes it along with this big pole. Sounds simple. It is not. when I did it we got very friendly with making circles, and the low hanging trees and shrubbery on the banks.
Beautiful bridges.
Champagne on the river. Apparently this is legal? I think its normal here.
Snacks on the banks of the river. And a little birthday cake made by her real German boyfriend.
Noora and her boy Patrick. They are nice and happy.
Where we got off to have a picnic.
We had a little rose champagne on the banks of the river.
It was just the most perfect day.

I like the boats. That looks so fun. Remember last time we were in a boat? "ROW LEFT!"--"I AM ROWING LEFT!" Maybe we are not meant to be boat captains. Dang.
