Off to Windsor Castle this morning...hope we can have spare
time to visit Greenwich this afternoon. Yesterday was a drive
to Cambridge University, whose town is England's most quaint,
attractive and architecturally design-coordinated university town.
The Trinity College and King's College are the top two structures to
see. We went punting along the small river that runs along the complex,
which offered us a better view of the magnifico buildings, and also
a chance to hear from the punty rower himself for some information
on the sights we're seeing, plus the sight of ducks and ancient bridges
was to behold.

It's my 8th day here in London, staying at my cousins Chiqui and Mark's flat for mine and Ging's honeymoon trip. For the eight days that we've been here, we've been to so many places, in and out of London, I'm losing count. We have never imagined this trip could happen, especially now that it has only been 5 months and we're starting fresh, since all our savings (none there is) should be alloted for making major improvements on the east wing of our house in Lagro. Visa results came out April 20, and Lorna gladly forwarded money for our airfare as their wedding gift to us. This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance and I wouldn't dare let is pass by. It's like the story of "opportunity". Opportunity rarely comes, so if opportunity is like a long lock of hair stuck at a man's forehead passing by, if you don't grab it right away, it will just pass by like fire vanishing. Lucky you if it'd come back again. You would need to coordinate the whole milky way galaxy to come and get that opportunity back.
