It’s been a while since I’ve caught up on the blog, but it’s good to get back on it. It’s been quite a rollercoaster of weather here in the UK lately – one moment we’re basking in sunshine and the next we’re bracing ourselves for some biblical event. But that hasn’t stopped us from enjoying our time here….armed of course with the right clothing.
Last week, we took a trip to Cambridge with Jon and Jo. Despite the chill in the air, we had a blast wandering around the city, taking in some of the sights and sounds. We stopped off for a delicious, healthy lunch before making our way to the Fitz William Museum, which amongst other artefacts houses Monet’s “Le Printemps” one of my favourite pieces of art!After the museum, we stumbled upon a charming little tea shop overlooking a green space, where we warmed up, drank unusual teas and listened to some good tunes. It was the perfect end to a lovely day. We stopped into see Rachel’s mum, before heading back home.
Of course, the weather hasn’t always been on our side – we’ve had a few days of restricted walks thanks to the River Ouse bursting its banks. But that just put a different spin on the landscape on our early morning walks….we’ve had quite a few.
We’re getting ready for our next adventure and had to make a trip down South to swap out our winter gear for spring and summer clothes, and had the chance to catch up with some old friends along the way. We even got to give Christien a quick hug before he headed off on a ski trip.
All in all, life is good and we’re grateful for every moment we get to spend with the people we love. And speaking of which, we recently had dinner with Rachel and Keith – always a riot! I’ll update you all on where we’re off to next.
