A path in Christ's Pieces - a common between home and town. |
With M away in Singapore we decided to learn the path to town. This will probably be where Willow bikes to to catch her bus to school so we walked/biked the route and found places to leave the bike. After locking the bike up we wandered off to a tourist filled town.

We wandered through the town, past all the gondolier punters at the river and up to Castle Hill. Since there we asked about Petal's school allocation at the council but were told that it may be mid August before the committee has finished sorting all the requests.

Norman Round Church |
The Norman round church was full of info abut the History of Cambridge and is the 2nd oldest building in the town. The Tower of another church was built by Cnut - a lifetime or two before the Norman invasion of 1066. The lolly shop opposite had a long visit!
The girls have decided that UK McDonalds is bland and yucky so that cheap alternative for lunch won't be repeated. The young trainee messed up our order after whinging on to me about how hot and tired he was and that he still had another 2hrs before his shift ended and they don't do a coffee frappe - only an overly sweet Mocha, I though how Julie S would share my disappointment. It was really hot in there, no air con when outside was 30degrees, I can't imagine how hot the cooks must have been feeling. We ate in a shady common overlooking the Cam river. The scent of recent bovine visitors was very strong.
