along the river, picture of St.Johns College
hauntingly beautiful
awwww...so romantic.
The best thing about Cambridge in spring is Not the mushrooming ice-cream stalls all over the place, is Not the beautiful flowers sprouting everywhere, is Not girls in short skirts [well, i AM a girl myself- couldn't care less], is Not the holidays, is Not the chance to see blue blue skies, is Not the chance to dump my thick jackets..
BUT to enjoy the river.. punt along the river. To feel the breeze blowing gently and you lean back and enjoy the scenery float pass you.. feeeling Oh so calm, peaceful and contented. with some strawberries and grapes in the punt.. and taking photos every so often and "Oooh" and "Aaaah" every few moments, as the Grand Johns College looms ahead just around the bend, the romantic Bridge of Sighs [imagine clandestine lovers meeting there for rendezvous *wink*] and the willows hanging down, surrounded by the river that looks deceptively clean.
well, i'd like to leave you with that calm image but.... for the more adventurous, punting is A sport. you'll have to come and try it for yourself!! *grins*
