cambridge yesterday

adrian did a lecture in cambridge yesterday. as a dutiful wife, i went with him.

all i did yesterday was roam around the town. and did some of my christmas shopping (for presents). i had some coffee breaks, a nice lunch, and met the husband after his talk in an espresso cafe, and went back again to the shops with him. left the place at 6PM and went home, and got some takeaway food, for dinner.

when we got in the house, we put the telly on, and had dinner. what a saturday. just how we love it.





the town was freezing cold. the frost has gone by then. this was around half ten in the morning..



some corners of the town







interesting nooks





its a bicycle town..all ages bike around..and the leaflets and posters so interesting to read, there's always a poetry reading somewhere, or a drama class somewhere.




a very popular publication...where some of the best academic books are published




the market was buzzing. this was by noontime already




i love market scenes..one day, i'm taking a project of compiling market photos all over the world.




this is the arcade where i took shelter from the cold




this photo was taken with Adrian with me. on our way back to the car, we saw the buskers. they are called Fernando's Kitchen. i truly love their music. a hint of latin, african, and jazz fusion. i wish i could afford to hire them for my graduation party,hehe (*dreaming*)




just before we drove home, Adrian requested for tea. i had cappucino. and a tart,haha.





its a lovely fill before our drive home:-)


**
its been my third time to roam around Cambridge on my own for Adrian's lecture day,sometimes, he does the lecture, sometimes,he attends one.

everytime, i am mesmerised how the town changes yet never still maintain's is history despite its modern tweaks..

urban planning in this country is very much entertwined with heritage preservation.
