If you happy and you know it

I have enjoyed the past few days a lot! Well, honestly, I am not sure what to do with myself, but I try to make the best out of all my free afternoons. On Thursday, we all went to the Granta Pub, which is so lovely. It’s right next to the river and I really hate that I haven’t discovered it earlier.traffic jam on the Cam

On Friday, I went to town and met my friends Laura and Elidir. We had a drink on the roof of a hotel with a wonderful view over Cambridge.  After that… I was walking around aimlessly town. I walked from A to B to C and then back to A without having done anything. I just didn’t know what else to do. But as the weather was so nice, I felt it was a good way to waste my time.

All the time, a voice in my head kept telling me: No, you should go back to work. Revise, read,… you are not done yet.  I think this is something I need to get used to again 😉

On Saturday, ma friends and I had afternoon tea at Harriets, a traditional tea room in the centre of Cambridge. Absolutely lovely! Then we decided to just walked around a little bit. There was a huge park that I hadn’t had time to see earlier so we went there. It was extremely nice and I felt like being on holidays. I got an ice cream, saw cows, and ladybirds making out. 🙂so much action ;)

On Sunday, I enjoyed breakfast (at around noon, because seriously,…  who gets up in the morning?) at Autie’s Tea Shop, which is something everyone should visit. After that I got the Hollywood feeling when my friend took me to Grantchester (which is about 10 minutes by car) in his Cabriolet! With the roof down and music blasting we drove there and to walk around a bit. A lot of the houses have a thatched roof and a beautiful garden. I was so impressed.

That was my weekend. It was amazing 🙂

 

Trip to Grantchester

It’s not even April yet!

I know that the weather in England can be crazy. But I don’t think I have ever seen that before:

I woke up, because the rain was pouring down. It was raining cats and dogs. And hamsters and guinea pigs as well. And elephants. What I’m trying to say is it was raining heavily.

After the rain came sunshine and it was really nice outside. I planned on strolling into town to buy food after noon. At half past twelve, I was about to leave my flat,  it started to hail outside! For about 10 minutes I stood at the window and watched the back garden getting whiter and whiter.

After these 10 minutes full of excitement (I love this kind of weather so much!) it stopped almost immediately and the sun started shining again.

In the afternoon there was a mix of sunshine and dark clouds. Unfortunately, it didn’t rain again.

British weather is just the best… if you can stay inside all day long and don’t have to go out:)
