CSF?

Can anybody explain to me how CSF flows through the brain; the origin of it, the circulation, and the destination?
I missed that part of the lecture when I was typing some other notes.

CSF is formed via the choroid plexus (mostly in the lateral ventricles) and then flows into the 3rd ventricle and then into the 4th ventricle and out into the subarachnoid space. It drains back into the blood via the arachnoid granulations and then the plasma gets ultrafiltrated again to produce more
