Higher Learning

We made it down to Cambridge for bookshopping, as well as elbow rubbing with the academic set. John and I both agreed that had our respective university campuses boasted castles and cathedrals and people in long black robes, we would have taken our educations more seriously. Forget computer labs, students need gargoyles and flying buttresses.

The remainder of our Peterborough time passed in a blur of delicious food, weekend magazines and time with my Auntie and Uncle. John was briefly terrorized by a tortoise.

I ended the trip with a bang -- taking a day with my Auntie to visit the Knitting and Stitchery Show at the Alexandra Palace in London. How awesome was the show? There was a knitted Ferrari on display. That's how awesome.
