Getting the Feel For It

Well we have been in Cambridge for about three days now, and have accomplished very little in getting our new lives set up here.  In order to rent a place, we need a UK bank account, and in order to get a UK bank account, we need a permanent address.  In order to get cell phones here, we need both!  So we've been banging our heads against the wall trying to figure it all out.  Tomorrow we're heading to the base where Craig will be working and hope to get some help from some other Americans who have been through this before.  So far everyone has been very nice to us here and we've had fabulous food (don't believe what you hear about it!).  The oddest things we've tried are squirrel (it was good!), and black pudding which is a typical breakfast dish made with pig's blood.  I will be dedicating a future post just to pudding, as people are obsessed with it here.  Here are a few pictures we've taken around Cambridge, they really don't do it justice though.  It's very beautiful, a mix of old and new architecture, mostly old though, the newer buildings look a little out of place.
