6-14-26 Cambridge Excursion

Today we did a day trip to Cambridge.  

On the way, we stopped at the Cambridge American cemetery, where Americans killed in WW2 are buried.  We have been to the American cemetery in Normandy where all deaths were within days of each other at Normandy. This cemetery has American military members who died over a period of years and locations so long as they died door to the war.

In Cambridge, we were treated to a ride on small 6 person boats called punts, each propelled by a person using a pole, I think called a poleman.  It was a good way to see buildings on the Cambridge University.  Our poleman  provided a running commentary about the buildings we passed and the bridges we went under.
