Dann and I did a little explore of Cambridge, where we wanted to have some slow mornings and some walking around afternoons enjoying the sunshine. On both of the days we were in Cambridge, we explored the Cambridge Market Square. This is a historical, outdoor market right in the centre of the area, with a bunch of different independent stall holders. It’s open every single day of the week, so we were excited to see if it changed and how the market held up.
Every month, Amelia and I carve out some mother-daughter time to decorate cupcakes! This time, we went along to the Rainbow Cupcake Class – a class that has been around for quite some time, but we hadn’t actually gone before. Sweet Designs by Jennie does a handful of these classes each month, often with different themes, and we always pick a new one that we haven’t done before. The rainbow class has been one that Amelia had been eyeing for quite some time, as we hadn’t done multi-colored frosting yet.

Dann and I had a little overnight in Cambridge, to pretend to be tourists in a new place, essentially. When walking around one of the streets in the sunshine, we stumbled upon the Cambridge Gin Laboratory, which had a bunch of events listed on their door. They seem to do a collection of things from making your own gin to the history of gin, to a gin cocktail class that we ended up attending called Mix It!

When somewhere says they have the greatest views of a city we are in, we have to take a look. I am not sure why, it’s just always something that we end up doing. So, when we saw a sign outside Great St. Mary’s Church saying it was the best view of Cambridge, we went in to climb the towers! Great St. Mary’s Church is also known as the University Church of Cambridge, built in 1209. The building was then rebuilt in the Perpendicular Gothic style between 1478 and 1608, with the university’s bells added to it.
We have seen the Harlow Ballet preform at Harlow Playhouse previously, as this is something Amelia really loves to attend. Her bestie actually is a member of this group, so she had been quite excited for some time, hearing about their rehearsals. So, on the day they showcased, Robin, Amelia, Dann and I all headed to see the Harlow Ballet preform Cinderella at Harlow Playhouse.
