    Cambridge for Dane's graduation!!

    July 1, 2017 in England ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

    We had breakfast in the apartment before heading to Dane's day of graduation celebrations. It started with champagne while they announced the prizes for the year. Dane won a prize and received £200 for getting the highest grade at his college in Law. We then had high tea in the drawing room. We ate yummy sandwhiches and cakes. After we headed out to the garden party for Pimms, Gin cocktails, Strawberries and Cream, Ice cream and Alcoholic Popsicle.
    We headed into town for the ceremony which included a procession down the Main Street and into the Senate House. The graduation ceremony had certain traditions, including it all spoken in Latin and some strange finger holding. Dane received his certificate and we were all very proud of him!
    We had some celebration drinks while sitting along the river, at the pub and then dinner. The kids then went to a house party for a friend of Dane's before heading home.
