Today we had a trip to Cambridge for a leisurely walk, coffee at the Michaelhouse Centre and a lunchtime concert at Newnham College.
This was the invite from Joyce.
"Wednesday November 2nd a leisurely group walk in Cambridge. Those wishing for a longer walk, pls park at Newmarket Park n Ride in the far back car park for 9.30am. We will meet under the large bicycle Archway. I expect toilets here but I'm not 100% certain. We will then use tarmac paths to cross Stourbridge common and walk alongside the River Cam. If you wish to park at the Riverside, end of Stanley Road, Cambridge CB5 8LF. This is free parking and will shorten your walk by 4 miles. We will collect you at 10.10am.
We will then all head to coffee at Michaelhouse Cafe (4 miles from Park n Ride) approx 11am.
We will head over to Newnham College, passing Kings College and other Cambridge highlights for a lunch break. The grounds of Newnham will be open and you are allowed to wander. Food and drink here is a little cheaper so why not treat yourself to something like soup/sandwich. before a free 30-minute recital at 1.20pm - 1.50pm - the Raleigh Society Lunchtime Recital: Freshers’ Recital.
On the way back, I will endeavour to either get access to Christs College grounds or we will climb the Cambridge Castle Mound for a skyline view. Or we might wander back via Clare College - expect a lovely leisurely look around Cambridge and a walk of about 8 miles or 12 miles depending on your choice of parking. I will try and be back at the Park N Ride by 4pm."
