Cambridge

After taking the train from King's Cross, we spent our final day together, in Cambridge
Homerton College of Education, Cambridge University -- Lunch in the Great Hall


 Farmers Market backed by King's College
 Medieval stained glass, many centuries old -- survived the bombings of WWII (packed away in safety and re-installed after Armistice)

Rubens' "Adoration of the Magi" altarpiece
 Looking toward the rear of the church
 Can you say "fan vaulting"?

 King's College courtyard.
 Cambridge University's answer to "The Wall"

Punts on the Cam, in the rain
 Pub where Watson and Crick announced the structure of DNA
