Punting

I have sooooo many things to say about the pleasures and delights of my UK visit so far, and soooo little leisure in which to say them. [personal profile] ravurian is more fabulous than I'd even dared to hope, [personal profile] ruric is the soul of generosity, and [personal profile] altariel today handed me Cambridge: The Insider's Tour complete with some of the best conversation I have ever enjoyed.

Each day so far has been packed with goodness: miles of walking, theatre, sights, museums, pubs and boats and churches and cafés and parks and birds and languages and people from all over the world. And books and whisky and ice cream and trains, and oh, I just love it here so much!

So since I've walked my feet off, and it's late and the jet lag isn't quite gone yet, and I have another full day tomorrow (and the next day...and the one after that), I wish to leave you with this selected shot of the beauties of Cambridge, taken from a punt on the Cam this afternoon.

That picture is brilliant. Sounds like your UK vacation is smashing. Keep regaling us with tales from afar!
