Running in Cambridgeshire

Running in Cambridgeshire was quite a surprise. Turns out there are many bicycle paths around, which are perfect for running. The one closest to us goes all the way to Cambridge, 6 miles away. Plus it travels along the river Cam, which is picture-perfect. There are lots of ducks, geese, and some beautiful swans. As mile markers, you have World War II bunkers!

English English

Now that I'm in England, I decided to record all the British things that I notice, just for fun.
Lorry=truck, cheers=thanks, rail station = train station, sorted = arranged...
More to follow. Also, British people generally avert their eyes if you pass them on the street. Today we met the first guy who didn't do that -- probably a hired killer:-)
