Cambridge

Today, Todd and I led a group of students to Cambridge. I had never been there, so I was looking forward to seeing the various colleges that make up the university. If it was anything like Oxford, I knew I’d enjoy it.

I was not disappointed. I found Cambridge to be a bit more lush than Oxford. Other than that, this rival of Oxford was fairly comparable – steeped in tradition, history, and beauty. My camera wore the 70-200mm, which limited me in some ways, but I think I got a nice selection of photos. We toured a couple of different colleges, including Queen’s and St. Johns, watched the punters punting, and enjoyed all of the town we could see in a day. Please check out the rest of the gallery.
