CAMBRIDGE MUST SEES

[@doubleplusgoodthinker9434]

I studied at Pembroke College many years ago and later on lived and worked there. My daughter was born there. I am pleased to say that it has not changed much judging by your video. Many thanks.

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

Thank you for sharing this! Isn't it comforting when you see a place close to your heart and can still recognize it :)

[@patrykryska5877]

LOVE this video! And I totally agree that was the perfect housewarming gift. Looking forward to the summer punting... and prosecco!

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

I can’t wait for Cambridge: Episode 2! We have a wonderful host that we can’t wait to stay with again!

[@howardscott1556]

I used to work in Cambridge but never really explored the centre. I do remember trying to do the King Street run: a pint in every pub on King Street. It got very messy and we never completed it.

[@nicoleatkinson6599]

One of my faves, your best photography yet. You nailed the 'Cambridge vibe'.. to me, it's the feeling of literally walking through great history. Can't wait to be there soon, let's go punting together!!!

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Can't wait to explore when you're here!!!

[@brianchalkley7039]

Another enjoyable video, never been to Cambridge and this certainly makes me want to go

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

Thank you Brian! Highly recommend a visit!

[@raiskis1]

Punt down to Grantchester and have a cream tea. In the summer.

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

Sounds lovely!!!

[@JC0023]

U must check out Oxford, bath, York edingburgh, Windsor, canterbury, Chester Winchester, Salisbury, durham, and Cotswold villiages all beautiuful like Cambridge Sussex and kent countryside villages are soooo pretty too! You have soo many places to discover

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

Thank you for these suggestions! Salisbury and Cotswolds have been on my to-travel-to list! There's one place that you mentioned that will be featured in an upcoming episode... stay tuned!

[@richardhood1337]

Go a bit further north to Ely. That has a Tower worth getting to the top of, but not me - scared of heights. but Ely is worth a visit.

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

The Cathedral in Ely looks fantastic! I've added this to my list. Thank you!

[@uktravel8341]

Thanks for posting.

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

Happy to share my experiences! :)

[@richardhood1337]

If you go back, try and get a tour of the Colleges, or even try and see the college Chaples. Christopher Wren had a lot to do with them. Also, the Cambridge Folk Festival is worth a visit, as is the Strawberry Fair.

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

Wonderful suggestion - thank you Richard! Which Colleges are at the top of your list?

[@richardhood1337]

@@ACanadianAbroadMichelle It is difficult to single any individual college, but definitely Queens, Kings, Corpus Christi, Trinity, Trinity Hall, Jesus and Emmanuel Colleges.

[@archiebald4717]

Cambridge University has produced 121 Nobel Laureates. Must be all that cycling, on sit-up-and-beg bikes from the 1950s. Henry VI also founded Eton College.

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

Now, those are bragging points!

[@chrisfinlay3274]

You should definitely check out the Ashmolean Museum which is fantastic and in a beautiful building (also free), the book shops, also a very quick train hop to Ely to see one of the worlds great Cathedrals.

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

These are great suggestions thank you! I’ve added them to my list. I’m not familiar with Ely yet - looking it up!

[@chrisfinlay3274]

@@ACanadianAbroadMichelle I had a brain freeze and meant the Fitzwilliam Museum, the Ashmolean is in Oxford!

[@arthurerickson5162]

I have been to Cambridge, but it was many moons ago! I may have missed it, but did you go to the Great Court at Trinity? That’s the one featured in “Chariots of Fire” (one of my favorite ‘running’ films). It’s a true story and very inspirational, too. Punting on the River Cam is also part of a “missing” Tom Baker Dr Who episode! Need a rating of the beers - may have to add Cambridge to the places to go list for my Father/Sons trip to the UK this autumn 😊. ps Love the channel!

[@citywise8773]

In fact, Arthur the film ‘Chariots of Fire’ was not filmed at Great Court, Trinity. Trinity famously refused permission and what purports to be Trinity is in fact Eton College who did give permission

[@arthurerickson5162]

@CityWise Oops! Actually, never realized that! 🙏

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

I have another trip planned to Cambridge soon, so a part two is on the horizon! I highly recommend a visit with your son - that sounds like a great time, especially in fall!

[@ianrodger21]

Your content is really well done. Fancy a guided tour of the Royal Parks? Ian tree, get in touch

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

Thank you - glad you enjoyed the episode! Which Royal Park is your favourite?!

[@ianrodger21]

@@ACanadianAbroadMichelle well working there I should say all of them but Greenwich is my fave! Topography, history and 400 year old trees, hard to beat in such a compact park

[@stuartc9149]

Museums, galleries, libraries, bookshops. An unforgivable miss

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

I completely agree Stuart - I missed out on all of the above! Next Cambridge trip will feature at least two.

[@stuartc9149]

@@ACanadianAbroadMichelle Good. A welcome rectification. Enjoy

[@AndyKing1963]

Botanic Garden

[@Andy_U]

Alcohol-free Prosecco???

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

Ohhhhhhh!!! Well of course if it exists! I plan on returning to the real deal in the spring on occasion so a punting & Prosecco experience may be on the horizon 👍🏻

[@Andy_U]

@@ACanadianAbroadMichelle - I've just checked and... Shock! Horror!... alcohol-free Proseccos DO exist! Labels don't say Prosecco, though. Stay safe. All the best to you.

[@uktravel8341]

It would be a much nicer place without all the bikes whizzing past. Not really a medieval atmosphere anymore.

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

I did find that there are nods to Cambridge's medieval past to be found - I especially love the side streets! I certainly needed to keep my wits about me with all those cyclists!
