We strolled down

 To the Cam late yesterday afternoon. I needed to convince Middle Cat people really do punt on it.  She was fascinated by the quite large number of people who were being treated to a rather chilly ride. 

We declined all offers to take us on to the water at any price. It was more fun to watch the tourists. Of course we are also tourists but not in quite the same way. We at least speak English of a variety the locals understand and, despite being lost yesterday, I managed to give directions today.

I spent some hours with my dear friend A… and her family as well. It was such a privilege and I had to be careful to remember they were not on holiday.
