This morning we left Thetford to make our way to Oxford. On the way, we stopped off at Ely to visit its cathedral, which has a marvellous lantern that is unique in all of England. We then headed off to Cambridge. We visited King’s College Chapel and walked around the many of the other colleges. Due to limited time, we were not able to visit all of the colleges, but we did manage to have a peek at a few of them. We then made our way on to Oxford.

So far, we have travelled over 1100 miles in England.
