Express By Holiday Inn Cambridge

The last few weeks have been really manic while we've prepared to put our furniture into storage and get our property ready for letting. Thankfully, most of the hard work is completed and now we can concentrate on getting ready for our travels. It's difficult to believe that we leave in just under a week! <br><br>We fly into Delhi on Monday, arriving very early ...

... girls. A friend's daughter is a talented singer, so we headed out to watch her perform, have a couple of bevvies and catch up with Uncle Alan, who stopped by to say hello before heading to work. <br><br>Saturday was a very relaxed day. We did our packing - i can't believe how much stuff we've picked up along the way!, finished the washing and had a nap. Then around 2ish ...

... at home! Stocked up on some souvieniers - Josh got a Heineken bottle with his own name on it! <br><br>So that ate up a couple of hours, so we just wandered around the shopping district for a little while, grabbed some postcards, beanie hats and a pair of fetching yellow clog shaped slippers for me! Back to the hotel for the bag, then up to Central station for the train back to Schipol - truly getting to and from the airport is just so easy! <br><br ...

<br><br>The most outgoing and bubbly people mostly go in for pastel shades or<br>light colors in clothing while the reserved people choose the safer<br>shades. Besides, you have those who wear bright prints and unique cuts<br>which reflects their expressive and loud personality. Ed Hardy clothing brings you ...

... br>From Cambridge we decided to go and pay Helen's Aunt a visit, simply on the basis she has pet Chickens and a couple of Dogs I adore. On the way, we stopped off for lunch at Mildenhall and Lakenheath, two small towns that are fairly boring...except they are pretty much a part of the USA. Most of the cars are American, most of the population are, and the huge Jets ...

... you just have to convey the information effectively. People are naturally attracted to good, clear sources of information. Bingo. I was also struck by the unignorable hugeness of Cambridge's math(s) department. It's surprisingly large, both physically and by student enrollment. MIT's math department is roughly two hallways in a building otherwise swallowed whole by experimental chemists. To foster a social atmosphere, the MIT math department dispenses ...

... looked at the outside of several of them before breaking up for lunch. There is a market that takes place there every day and so Vanessa, Shannon, and I found a sandwich cart. It was an alright lunch, grilled ham and cheese, crisps, and a coke. After lunch we did a little bargain shopping. First we found a bakery cart and I got a giant chocolate muffin. Then we looked around and I bought a Cambridge hat for my dad. Finally I spent the rest of the time ...

... the arterial road from the centre of Cambridge to my office. It made me grumble that I may as well be working in London - though of course people actually commuting to London were even more ensnarled, with lots of trains not running at all as a precaution. Though freezing conditions and possibly snow are forecast next week, today has been a reprieve. A blue sky morning motivated me to cycle to work, which gave me ...

... history of Christianity in Cambridge, and seeing the first court at St. John's College. We also walked through Pembroke College and saw the outside of the Fitzwilliam Museum. I think the highlight of the day was probably recounting Bennett/LaPierre Family stories. Around 7:00 pm we crammed seven people into a King's College punt and spent about 1 1/2 hours punting along the Cam reading (and reciting!) poetry. Both Cris and I took a turn punting on the way ...
