More C.S. Lewis-July 19

This is our C.S. Lewis tour bus and guide in Oxford. The three hour tour is directed by Ron Brind, boyhood friend to Lewis' step-sons, Dave and Doug. Ron bemoans the fact that most Brits, even Oxford Brits, think C.S. Lewis is "that bloke who wrote Alice In Wonderland." Ron is happy though that a healthy number of Americans know about C.S. Lewis. He says that 90% of his tour guests are Americans.

This is Lewis' church--Holy Trinity. That's Prof. Wright with her back to us, Ron, and library science student Mary. Inside Holy Trinity Church looking from the Altar.

Yours Truly in Lewis' pew.
