Chie and Erika on a bridge over the Cam, as a punter was busy climbing over.11:43:59

Erika on my shoulders. A lovely day today. Perhaps a bit too warm for tweed!12:04:42

Unfortunately the camera on my phone failed to save this photo properly, taken on arrival at The Orchard.12:42:56
The menu at The Orchard, taking as I was queuing to order food.

After a ridiculously long wait in the queue to order food, I finally got back to our table with scones which we ended up eating as a sort of starter because the savoury food would be a further wait.13:16:14
Erika digging into the jam.13:16:26

...and now our main courses have arrived, so our backwards lunch can continue.13:28:33
Erika took this.

Obviously Erika's patience for sitting at the table eventually expired and she wanted to run around instead.14:06:15
Yes the apple blossom is definitely out. Although only just.14:06:43

We cheated on the way back and got a taxi into Cambridge, which deposited us outside Queen's College.14:59:19
We went on a brief tour of Queen's College, thinking it might perhaps instill some early academic ambition in Erika.14:59:31
15:01:10
It's rather lovely.15:05:07
15:21:39
After our tour of Queen's College we went to get ice creams, which we sat in this little park to eat.15:24:13
We decided to head back home after this - although it had been a fleeting visit to Grantchester and Cambridge it had nonetheless been a lovely one!

Back at home now, where I decided to open the Genovese vermouth I bought there last Octber.
