We were in Cambridge – surely we had to wear the right colours. š
We took a trip to Cambridge last evening, to beĀ sure we’re onĀ timeĀ to meet a very important new friend – but more of thatĀ tomorrow.
Praewa (George’s godmother) went with us. She’s young and cool – and she wanted to share her pink earphones with us – it was too big for George
They fit me better but nah, didn’t really like the music.
We stayed in our all too familiar Hotel du Vin because we know they are dog friendly. Ā
The next day before we did any of the sight-seeing, Mummy said we must wear the right colours! Ā I got a Cambridge Blues scarf.
And Georgie got the Kings College colours – because Praewa (his godmother) thinks purple looks better on him. Ā And he wears it proudly!!! Go Georgie!
We soon realised that dogs – along with bicycles and radios – are not really allowed inside any of the colleges …
So this was the only photo we took inside any of them.
While there are lots and lots of old buildings and lots of history in Cambridge, one of the newest attractions is The Corpus Clock – described “a unique and strange device for measurement of time”.
Besides the colleges, Mummy really wanted to go to the Fitzwilliam Cake shop. Dogs are not really allowed inside even though we almost managed to get ourselves in there last evening. Ā They were apparently full but invited us to come back today –
And we did –Ā
Just so Mummy could try a Chelsea bun
When we were outside, we met Ludo and his Mummy – who reads out blog! š
We carried on to discover the sights of Cambridge before meeting Bow.
May’s comment: This is our third Hotel du Vin in two months.
We love the art work that is so much a part the hotel culture.
We tend not to be able to eat in any of their restaurants but the dogs are allowed in the bar area.
