Every morning on our way to the Buttery, we would look out from
the Clare Bridge and see the still waters of the Cam and the
swans making their way on the river.
We're going to miss this morning walk, view and ritual.
The sun setting over Cambridge, much like it did on Friday night.
Last year, I wasn't able to write a goodbye blog so I am happy that I can do so this year, although it will be a sad goodbye to a good and lively group of kids and an excellent onsite coordinator.
We had our farewell dinner last night (Friday) in the Great Hall. The students surprised us with goodbye cards and cookies. Here are photos of the farewell dinner, Maggie and her friend Lynda (they will continue on their journey for a couple more weeks), and the students:
Our table awaits!

Zack stood up and gave a nice speech as well as handed out
signed cards and tins of cookies for Mark, Maggie and me. It was a very nice surprise!

Over the weekend, everyone made their plans to continue traveling or to head on home, perhaps (like us) with one more visit to London.
