STOP PRESS: sunshine!!

OK,  I don't want to jinx us or anything but this is the second day in a row where we have had sunshine for more than a couple of hours in a row. Summer, perchance? We wish it had been around last weekend when we had our very old friends (from Adelaide days) John and Jenny visit with their three kids. Luckily we decided to do our canoeing down the Cam river on the Saturday when it was at least half decent weather. Sunday we went for a walk downtown and then to the Fitzwilliam Museum before freezing in the park. The canoeing was fun - you have to wriggle between the punts (the flat wide boats with a person up front pushing with a long pole) as you meander along with the impressive college parks and gardens on either side and the occasional bridge overhead.
Coming up: this Sunday Brendon will take Sean to another birthday party while Finn and Katherine are off to see the Jubilee airshow at Duxford. It's less than 6 weeks before we leave so have started planning our France/Spain trip at the end and a trip to London to see the Thames river pageant on the Queen's jubilee weekend.
Here we all are last weekend in town and one too of Sean (Finn wasn't so keen to pose for Jen!)

  1. Sounds like fun (if a bit chilly)! Finn, be sure to get some action shots at the airshow to show Pop!
