Cambridge - the University City England

Cambridge is one of the places to visit in England.  It is a tourist location that is unique.  Along with Oxford they are built around the Universities.  This is the most famous of bridges the Bridge of Sighs in St.John College.  St.Johns College has grown from its beginning in 1511.  It was founded 19 years after America was discovered, almost 100 years before the first European saw Australia and will soon celibrate it's 500 anniversary.



It is a place of learning that has created an atmosphere that is seeping out of every pore of the City.  The City is a working place, it is like wandering through a working museum.  It is still one of the worlds greatest universities.  To wonder around the colleges, through the town and along 'the backs'.   Life in Cambridge is worth visiting.  If I could turn back the clock and resit 'A'-levels and attend any University this would have been it.  Amazing city.  Here are a few more snaps.
