Last Day in England

On our last day in England, we visited a couple of nearby churches. We loved seeing these old churches dot the English countryside while living abroad. Many of these churches are well-preserved and are still in use, despite their age. The 900 year-old church in our village continues to receive regular use.

Punting on the Cam

On our last day in England, we made one last visit to Cambridge to complete one of our England bucket list items: Punting on the Cam. The River Cam, which runs through Cambridge, is filled with small river craft called punt boats during summer. Local college students offer river tours providing a history of Cambridge University to earn some cash. This is definitely one of the most popular tourist activities in Cambridge and we were glad to have the chance to take the tour before leaving England.
