Pimms & Punting

We just touched down in London town, greeted most expectantly by confusion and exhaustion. (caused obviously by the "chatty Kathy's" in row in front of us). After walking what seemed to have been miles (or kilometers) we finally were comforted by the waiting arms of a one Leland Burns. 

As of right now, it's 6:34 PM here and we're fighting over what's left of a Gardetto's bag and waiting for Leland to return from his rowing practice.  In our first day, which has been filled to the brim, we have participated (I even gave it a go) in one of Cambridge's Queen's College's most common pastimes: Pimm's and Punting with Dave, who is apparently a novice History Guide as well (and arguably the coolest of Leland's friends here, partly because he is the only one we've met).  Consisting of purchasing a beverage (similar to maybe a SoCo and Lime, but sweeter and with fresh fruit) and rowing up and down the Cam river with a pole, I guess like the ones you see in Venice (btw hence the name Cambridge I'm told), punting is relaxing yet adventurous. Following this, we visited the King's College chapel, listening to a selection of chorus music, and managed to get lost on the way back to Caa's. 

As we wait for Leland, I try and fight the sleep that I so desperately need, and look forward to enjoying the Pints that soon await our arrival at the The Anchor (yes, a local pub). Perhaps a later post of more interesting nature will follow, which will include pictures and visual aids in the previous descriptions. Cheers! (apparently Leland is English and uses this term wildly).
