Something we haven't done for a long time is get a hop on hop off bus. But we decided that it would save some walking in Cambridge,
But first this is the college where we are staying.
Westminster College.
This is our little cottage.
This is our view of the college grounds from our cottage.
We got a senior discount on the bus...
Above is the mathematical bridge, over the river Cam. The bridge
was held together with no fastenings until some student high jinks made it fall down...
Our first stop today was the Sedgwick Museum.
There was a LOT of rocks...
It has a lots of the samples that Darwin collected on the Beagle.
Below is Darwin having a protest.
Back on the bus,,,
This time to the Fitzwilliam Museum.

A very pretty room of still life.
Here is the now Prince and Princess of Wales.
Beautiful building. I won't bore you with more photos of great master paintings.
And the bus took us home nearly to the front door.
We actually feel like eating tonight!
So it was off for a pizza and (a too big) gelato around the corner at an Italian restaurant.
