"Duckworth and I made an expedition up the
river to Godstow with the three Liddells
<Alice, Ina, Edith>. We had tea on the bank
there, and did not reach Christ Church again
til quarter past eight. On which occasion,
I told them the fairy-tale of Alice's
Adventures Under Ground."
- Lewis Carroll, 4 July 1862.

That was perhaps the most famous picnic
of all time !

"Still she haunts me phantomwise,
Alice moving under skies
Never seen by waking eyes."
- L.C.
