Indian summer has followed us since we arrived. The weather has been amazing. Warm, sunny and perfect for getting to know our new surroundings and putting our flat together.
In the midst of a lot of this activity, there have been some great moments where I have had to pinch myself, as I didn't believe that I was doing those things.
Like punting down the Cam River. I actually got the hang of it pretty quickly.
Like putting on my new gown and walking down to the College for formal dinner with Susanne all dolled up as well. (pictures later).
Like sitting at a pub with my fellow students and being treated like one of them, despite my grey hair.
Like hearing people talk enthuisiastically about attending an amazing Darwin history and art exhibit at Fitzwilliam museum, and then having intelligent discussions about it after everyone had seen it.
Like sitting in the law school and taking in my first lectures, where things were actually pretty clear to me.
Like talking to a PHD biologist about his hypothesis for new DNA findings, or to a Chinese Archaeologist about his controversial findings about the origin of the Chinese people.
Like the thrill of seeing people's eyes light up when I tell them what the heck that I am doing studying law at Cambridge.
I am truly living my dream. Tonight we are off to the first pub night for my LLM class at the Eagle Pub.
Missing everyone.
