Spent today sightseeing all over Cambridge. The weather was 0 or lower and I nearly gave in but I stuck it out and ended up having a great day. Cambridge is full of churches and universities that are in really old beautiful buildings. Kings College is lovely. I spent some time walking around the botanic gardens which are a winter wonderland even more so covered in snow. The ride around the city on the tourist bus was freezing and i was the only fool sitting on the open top deck but worth it you get the best views from up there. I don’t like Cambridge as much as Oxford which is another uni town. I think Oxford is more attractive don’t get me wrong Cambridge is nice especially the narrow little back streets with buildings dating back to the 1700s it just doesn’t have that feel to it like Oxford in my opinion. The hotel I’m in is the worst I’ve stayed in on this trip, the photos and description on the web does not match reality I will enjoy writing my review on booking.com for this hotel.
The beautiful Kings College
The frozen pond in the Botanic Garden, my hands were aching with the cold at this point
But then i went into the glass house and warmed up while snapping away at all the pretty flowers.
Tomorrow i train it again back to London. Ciao from Cambridge
