She was a feisty woman -- grew up in a large family. Another tour guide who came after us tried to force her and her followers ahead of us at Oxford. I verbally fought her for a while before our more than adequate tour guide took over. The same thing had happened to a tour group I with with at Versaille in France -- twice! And the other two tour groups who were late went ahead of us, while we waited out in the very hot courtyard with now shade. I was very impressed with the success of our guide at Oxford who wasn't about to be pushed around.
At least I can honestly say I've gone to Oxford. If people misunderstand and think I attended classes here, that's OK.
Oxford is known as the 'city of the dreaming spires' - a term first coined by poet Matthew Arnold in reference to the gentle spires and harmonious architecture of the city's university buildings. The beauty of the city's colleges and riverside setting, literary links and stunning film and TV locations, shops with local character and music and drama ranging from candlelit evensong in college chapels to Shakespeare in the park – these ingredients blend with Oxford's lively mix of restaurants, pubs, theatres and tourist attraction to give this historic city its alluring, vibrant and cosmopolitan buzz.
Oxford’s golden-stone university buildings include some of England’s most impressive architecture, notably the Bodleian Library , a masterpiece of English Gothic, Sir Christopher Wren’s Sheldonian Theatre , and the Radcliffe Camera. Looking at these beautiful buildings, it’s no surprise that Oxford is one of Britain’s Heritage Cities.
The most famous attraction in Oxford is its university. Explore one of Oxford’s grandest colleges – Christ Church Cathedral – founded in 1525. It is home to the city’s famous cathedral and birthplace of Lewis Carroll's famous Alice books. Harry Potter fans will love the Great Hall which provided the model for the hall at Hogwarts.
The trailhead is at the end of a super steep paved road only negotiable by a 4x4. We hired this Cubataxi to take us there.
Jordani (spelling?) was our guide on the Pico Torquino hike volunteered to squash in with the luggage for the 10 minute ride.

This gentleman was one of the volunteer tour guides at the National Trust property in Birmingham - The back to back house on Hurst St.
He was a delightful man though reluctant to have his photo taken. I wasn’t sure if I should try harder to get him to let me take his picture. He told me he was always being asked to pose for the camera and didn’t feel like it on the day we visited. I did persist, gently, and he relented. We went out into the yard area of the property and this photo, one of three I took, is the result.
It was late in the afternoon and the light was dropping quickly, so I had to up the ISO to get a decent shutter speed. But the result is still pleasing.
I like the photos and hope the viewer does too. If he gets to see them I hope he does too. :-)
