Off to the Lake District

We're taking a short trip with our friends, James and Manuela, to the Lake District before returning to Cambridge to attend the Queens' College and Wolfson College Balls. M* finished classes yesterday, although his thesis is due and the program officially finishes the end of August.

While the forecast predicts some rain every day, we hear that is common in the Lake District. We're a bit use to the rain showers now—it's been a wet May and June. I just hope the weather is not too bad, as we are renting a car and I haven't driven on the 'wrong' side of the road since a trip to New Zealand over four years ago.

Arriving home after a lovely bike trip in the rain.


The cows don't seem to mind drinking from the Cam—newly muddy from the rain-caused runoff.
