Pints and Punting... what more could you want?

Finally, I've settled in Cambridge. Although I've loved the last month there is certainly something nice about doing laundry, and putting it in a dresser... ah... I've only been here a few days but I'm starting to get my bearings. I already found a favorite grocery store, the family that owns it is super nice. I've started working in the Development Department at Wolfson College, one of the MANY colleges in Cambridge, and next week I'll start working at Kettle's Yard, an art museum owned by Cambridge University. Let's face it, everything is owned by Cambridge University in this town. It's really confusing and sort of ridiculous... especially when it comes to private parks and gardens. That just doesn't seem fair. I've made a few friends as well, and we're all heading out for a pint tonight.

(For those of you who read this post originally I had to omit a part... for fear the person would read it... haha)

Here are some more pictures from Barcelona! Oh yeah... we went to a Monastery about two hours north of Barcelona... it was beautiful....


Twirling ladies at the flamenco show!


View from Montserrat... gorgeous...


*Ron Burgundy voice* I'm on top of a mountain!


Fear of falling off said mountain.


If you really looked at the cliffs you start to notice all sorts of little statues and buildings hidden within them. I wished we had longer than a day to explore.


I really love how this statue complimented the view.


Fruits and veggies in the market.


Inside the Sagrada Familia.

  2. haha. Nice, Lia.

    I've been punting! I think Susie M. fell in when we went. Pretty treacherous stuff. ;o)

    Minus the pompous Brit, it sounds good! I hope the pub goes/went well!
