It didn’t stop us from checking out the golf options though.
Rel is smiling, even though it is raining.
We eventually drifted off into Cambridge. Went on a walking tour of Cambridge, which was really good. Lots of info. The rain even held off during this walk.
It was encouraging to again visit a place where the car was not king. Bikes were everywhere, and pedestrians walked freely throughout the place.
The history of this place is amazing. We understand a lot more of the heritage of this place, and the rivalry with Oxford.
John now regrets not coming to this place to study.
They keep things in pretty good nick.
a few older buildings...
The rowing...
The most humorous moment of the day came when we caught the bus home. The 2 ladies sitting next to us started talking about some events in their lives. John thought they were trying out for a spot on ‘Kath and Kim’, their conversation was so banal and the accent set it all off. Narelle had to reassure John that they were just having a normal conversation and that they were likely to be 1st year uni students. Interesting.
At the end of the day we also decided to shelve plans to visit Scotland. The rain has set in for a few days, we really don’t feel like driving that far in the rain, and we like this area. It gives us a chance to head back to London a little earlier as well.
