Cambridge

Cambridge is a town about an hour and a half train ride from Grantham. It sounded like a fun place to go to so that is where we went. When we got there we headed toward the Eagle Inn. The Eagle Inn is an awesome 600 year old Pub. It is where DNA was first discussed. DNA (DeoxyriboNucleicAcid) is a self-replicating material. It is the key factor to life. James Watson and Francis Crick were the first people to discuss DNA. At the Eagle I ate Fish and Chips (fish and fries). It was delicious. After the Eagle we went to the Market. Next we did a small treasure hunt that was meant to take you around Cambridge. It passed us by buildings that looked like mini castles, King's College that looked like a HUGE castle, and lots of other cool things. King's College was beautiful and is one of 31 colleges part of the University of Cambridge, one of the best universities in the world. I loved Cambridge!
