A Literary Walk #11

The walking tour continues,

this time into one of the greatest seats

of learning in the world,

Oxford
20 miles

To view the places that inspired 2 great 

authors...

First up: C.S. Lewis

The pub where the "Inklings" hung out
and discussed ideas.

I like all the books in the Chronicles of Narnia

but "The Voyage of the Dawn Treader" is the 

one I love best.

Favorite Quote

"Please, Aslan," said Lucy. "Before we go, will

you tell us when we can come back to Narnia

again? Please. And oh do, do, do make it soon."

Dearest," said Aslan very gently, 

"you and your bother will never

 come back to Narnia."

"Oh, Aslan!!" said Edmund and Lucy together in

despairing voices.

"You are too old, children,"

said Aslan, "and you must begin to come close to 

your own world now."

It isn't Narnia, you know," sobbed Lucy. "It's you. 

We shan't meet you there.

And how can we live, never meeting you?"

"But you shall meet me, dear one," said Aslan.

"Are you there too, Sir?" said Edmund.

"I am, " said Aslan. "But there I have another name.

You must learn to know me by that name.

This was the very reason 

why you were brought to Narnia."

I have never forgotten as a young girl the
day I realized Aslan was Jesus...
I remember running to tell my Mom and she
looked so surprised and said
"Oh, you just figured that out now?!"
