Hello from Cambridge

15 June 2005. We arrived in Cambridge the day before yesterday, by train from the Liverpool Street Station in London. Yesterday we had a long leisurely walk through the city center, looking for the colleges that are particularly significant in the story of the congregation that became the Mayflower Pilgrims. Cambridge, like Leiden, is an old University City, full of centuries-old buildings and years-young people. After touring on foot, Richard pushed us around. Poled us around, actually, on a punt. "The bridge of sighs" properly named St. Johns bridge, is pictured above.
