A day out in Cambridge

 I didn't want to travel far or spend too much this summer so we ended up in Cambridge! It was a beautiful day to spend there too. I did what the kids will enjoy so didn't visit any colleges or do most of the museums. Some museums were closed on a Saturday so do check times before adding them on your itinerary.

First up, we did some punting! It was a great experience and we were so comfortable. The guide was very good explaining the history of the city. The punting tour took us through the main colleges which were beautiful!  We loved the experience and a must do in such a historic city!

Next, we took the long way across the city to visit Whipple Museum to quench the thirst of my paleontologist! On our way there, we sae the Corpus Christi clock which is a must-see attraction in the city.  We also came across multiple gardens but most importantly bookshops! Back to the museum...This was a small museum but it had lots of activities and had a lot to offer for everyone! The collection was huge! I will highly recommend it.

Our last stop was the Botanical Gardens. This was quite disappointing. I thought it'll be full of flowers but mostly ponds. But it had activities for kids which kept them busy.

Overall, we really enjoyed our day out and will  definetely come back when the kids want to explore the colleges!
