We took Mom, Dad and Tracy to Cambridge Saturday. It was a beautiful sunny day and we went on the perfect day to see graduates walking around! Each of the 32 colleges that make up Cambridge University graduate at different times. Kings college is the largest of the schools and Trinity College is the most well known, 20 some of the noble prize winners graduated from Trinity. Cool fact.....Prince Charles' body guard received a higher grade in final exams than he did!!! We went punting on the Cam and saw the backs of the colleges and enjoyed a relaxing boat ride. We ate lunch outside at Don Pascal's and watched people at the market. We also enjoyed looking in the shops and the girls found a Build a Bear in the Mall!! Rob and I told the girls they could get an outfit each for their bears/stuffed animals. It's been a while since they have been in a build a bear store....they were like deer in headlights looking at all the clothes!!! It didn't take the girls long to pick out an outfit and I'm sure they will remember the store is there.
