Dr. Yung Goes to Oxford


The inside of Christ Church

The old Oxford Jail. Those castle prisons sure put a chill in your spine. Guess what? It's now a hotel!


To the untrained eye, this is simply a stairwell in a building at Oxford. For Harry Potter fans, like Ben, they recognize this stairwell from the Hogwarts Academy! This stairwell is a much used location in the movies. The dining hall at the bottom of the stairs is probably the most used location in the film, but it was being used for a private function and Chris couldn't get in. If he tried, he could have ended up in that prison tower, just like Anne Bolyn!
Ubiquitous scenes of Oxford


Where would one refortify himself after a long trip "across the pond" and a full day speaking at the oldest university in the Western World? The saying goes, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do." Apparently, when in England, do as Americans do!

About Me

Renee Branson, MA, NCC
I believe that miracles can happen when purpose and passion meet. On any given day, I have more questions than I do answers. I have decided, however, that waiting to figure it all out is just wasting time. Do and learn at the same time.
