This was a couple of years ago while Mahi was still in a stroller so I hope I remember it right!
We went over the October half-term and I think that's the best time to visit such a historic town. We stayed with a friend close to the town centre so accessing all the attractions wasn't a problem.
As it was Halloween Season, Oxford Castle did their Haunted Castle event. This is the first ever Haunted Castle the kids ever attended so the kids always look back at it fondly. We had a few jumpy moments in the dark. It was great!
The next day, we obviously did the colleges. I mean just being there was an inspiration. It was the weekend, and the library was full! The chapels, dining halls, gardens, it's just this amazing feeling!
We then we went around the town centre doing some shopping and trying to find black macarons (Lucky was literally throwing a tantrum to eat Black macarons!!!!!). Alas, no such luck! We settled on normal macaroons. I loved going around Oxford. It's still like old times in most places.
We ended our trip by visiting the Ashmoleum museum! I remember the Roman and Egyptian sections of the museum which was so comprehensive!
A great weekend!
