My roommates and I went to Cambridge on Saturday to visit another intern Adam (who recently graduated from their University-Structural Engineering) and his wife Laura. The town was unlike anything I have ever seen.. incredibly beautiful
buildings and chapels with such intricate
architecture and design. It was an added bonus to have Adam show us around and share with us all of the rich history. Later in the day, we went to a popular pub with a few of
their friends. I had my first English dinner.. a roast beef Yorkshire pudding wrap with
gravy,
petits pois, and potatoes--simply a wonderful cultural experience.
Tonight we went to a
beautiful old-style village home out in the country side for a church social. We ate Thai food and later placed soccer (or f
ootball I should say) barefoot in our jeans as the sun was setting.. it was such a highlight to play and so fascinating to see how much this game is a part of their culture. I am finding this place to be so home-y and it makes me excited for each day that is to come.
