Hello From Cambridgeshire In England

Yes, you're right, SilverDollar2017: the main claim to fame around here is Cambridge University. I've heard that Harvard is in a town that calls itself Cambridge...well, this is the original version. Especially big on science, and boasts a science park that thinks of itself as the UK's answer to Silicon Valley (though I doubt whether Silicon Valley would be impressed). Leaving the city of Cambridge aside, Cambridgeshire is one of the flattest landscapes in England - basically similar to the landscape of Flanders (in Belgium) and the Netherlands, just across the North Sea/English Channel. That makes landmarks visible from an enormous distance, such as the medieval architectural masterpiece Ely Cathedral (the 'Ship of the Fens'), which you can see for three or four hours before you get there if you're walking towards Ely from Cambridge. It's also a great cereal-growing area due to the flat terrain and very rich soils. We also have a reasonable supply of fish & chip shops...and loos!

Thanks jbuck!

Thank you Dorado!

@BStrauss3: Nah, there's a pub every hundred yards or so along the way. The Golden Otter, The Plasterer's Arms, The Duke of Norfolk. You don't notice the long walk after a while...
