snow in cambridge

Three days after the official start of spring, winter came (back??): We got loads of snow in the morning. It was very nice although it melted in the afternoon :( Shakir, who has never seen snow before, was really enthusiastic about it.

sightseeing in cambridge

Jarno, Arbora, Shakir and I enjoyed sightseeing in Cambridge. We went to the museum of classical archaeology with its fantastic sculptures from the Roman and Greek Empires. After that, we went to the folk museum and saw how living in Cambridge was centuries ago. Shakir guided us to the tower of St. John's college from where we had a fantastic view at Cambridge! Then, we had a look into the Fitzwilliam museum before we enjoyed a concert in King's college chapel. We finished the day with Indian food and some ales afterward.

hillwalking in lake district

Last weekend, we went again to the Lake District to climb some of the hills there. It was quite fun although we suffered from strong wind, rain, and hail (at least on Saturday).
