Grantchester

Springtime weather in Cambridge has been really nice. We decided to take advantage of it by spending an afternoon at Grantchester Meadows, a green area on the bank of the River Cam. You can see it was a popular idea. We picnicked, walked, climbed trees, and explored the town of Grantchester. Timmy even took a dip in the river. The real adventure was taking the children there by bike - about 4 miles each way. That's a lot of peddling for Colin's little legs. Everyone did very well. We felt like we'd really lived like the locals today.

Kim and Mike:
Thanks for sharing your days in Paris with us. It looks like you all had a great time, and it brought back memories of our trips to Paris as well. We had particularly enjoyed getting a baguette or croissants and coffee from the nearby patisseries (although decaf coffee was sometimes a challenge to get). Your time in Cambridge has gone quickly, and you will soon be home. The memories you have created for yourselves and the children are priceless, and we envy the opportunity you had.
