After a whirlwind day in London, we head to the countryside to a quiet village just outside of St. Neots. Shayna has family here and we spend the next couple of days relaxing in their lovely country home and enjoying the scenery. While staying here we walk around the quaint village, enjoyed the music of a youth orchestra, spent a day in Cambridge, swam at a local private river club and toured Wimpole Estate. All of this such a treat provided by her family.
For me one of the most enjoyable times I had was sitting by the river at a local pub in St. Neots, enjoying a cider, and chatting with the girls. I was absolutely relaxed, just sitting and enjoying the time like the locals. As soon as we sat down boats were going up and down the river, swans were swimming and you could hear the cars as they rolled over the bridge. Nothing major, but just an every day experience in a beautiful town.
Check back later for more on the oh so lovely city of Cambridge where we had the most delightful afternoon tea and our tour of Wimpole Estate.
