Christmas Pantomime with Oli, Netty & Midi

 Christmas Pantomime 

It wouldn't be Christmas without a Pantomime and as always, Dame Trott’s Panto Palaver had us in hysterics. The storyline was ingenious as the panto baddie tried to ruin all the well-known fairy tales. But in true panto style, good overcame evil and normality was restored!

We visited the Botanical Gardens,  enjoying the beautiful gardens looking at the different plants and trees.



The City of Cambridge is full of old historical buildings and collages and we loved exploring the cobbled streets. There were lots of little shops, selling an array of gifts and souvenirs for us to browse amongst. We stopped lunch at a famous cafe called Fitzbillies for delicious homemade scones and cake. How fancy! 


lovely evening meal was had wearing our fabulous Christmas jumpers,  pulling crackers and sharing the silly cracker jokes. Our very own little Christmas party! 


We were fascinated exploring the Museum of Zoology. Everywhere we turned there were interesting cabinets displaying thousands of specimens spanning the entire animal kingdom, from elephants, giant ground sloths and giraffes, to birds, reptiles, insects and molluscs.


A beautiful winters day made our day on the river magical. 



We boarded our punt and set sail down the River Cam where our knowledgeable tour guide told us all about the history of Cambridge and its stunning colleges whist we all enjoyed the incredible views and a very relaxing ride. 


Most evenings we ended up at the local bowling and pool centre for some competitive but friendly games. There were amazingly high scores and some great pots on the pool table.
