Boats, Bikes, and Balloons: Getting Around in Oxford


As in "that other university city," punts are nearly as ubiquitous as long, black robes. Actually, during my recent visit, there weren't many robes around. I remember my first visit was around exam time and everywhere you looked undergrads glided through the streets of Oxford on their bikes, black wings flapping behind.


Obligatory "people in foreign countries ride bicycles" shot. The basket's just a bonus.


Longer travel time but considerably more leg room than the Virgin aircraft I used.
