Happy Saturday. We are at Cambridge today. The weather, although it seems cloudy, it's not
super duper cold, which is quite nice. We have a nice market behind us, so we're going to walk
around the market, check it out. There's also a Christmas market, which we hope to check out
at night when the lighting is nice and we can fly the drone. So we're very excited.
So far, I'm loving Cambridge. It seems very clean. I've never been here before. Very clean,
very just like, not as big as London, obviously. So very excited to explore. And then we might
take a little boat down the river and you guys will get to see that. But until then,
let's keep walking around and exploring. All right, we were a tad hungry, so we stopped
really quick and grabbed a little wrap. This has chicken, yogurt, hummus, onions, fries,
tomato and cucumber. So as always, let's do a taste test. It's definitely good. So hopefully
this is going to fill us up because we still have like three, four, five maybe hours of exploring
around here. Definitely a yummy wrap. So let's keep exploring. Okay, we are about to go punting.
So punting is basically going on that boat behind me. It's going to be 20 pound per person and I
think the tour is about 40 minutes to an hour. It's a guided tour, so we're going to go around
Cambridge. They're going to be telling us about the history, I'm assuming. I've never gone punting,
so I'm pretty excited and you guys are going to come with us. All right, quick little update.
We are punting as you can see and it's super duper peaceful. We're doing it right now and it's
kind of like golden hour, so the sun looks so nice. It's really peaceful, really calm
and they tell you a lot of fun facts along the way. So definitely recommend and yeah,
try it out when you come to Cambridge.
All right, we are at Fitzbilly's where they have the original Chelsea buns. I don't really know
what they're made out of. They kind of look like cinnamon buns with raisins, so I'm excited. So
we're going to try that and then I got myself a cup of chai latte. All right, let's do a little
taste test. Oh, they're super moist. They're very syrupy. This is so good. It is very sweet though.
But it's really, really delicious. It has like cinnamon, some kind of syrup. I think this is
raisins. I think so. Very sweet. I don't think I could eat like two at a time. I think I could
eat one hour rest or so and then have more, but now let's try the chai. It's good. Approved.
I'll rate the Chelsea bun an 8 out of 10. It is really, really sweet,
but it is really, really good as well. And for the box of four, we paid 13 quid.
So definitely come and check out Fitzbilly's in Cambridge. Okay, we have a little bit of an update.
I rated the Chelsea buns an 8 and unfortunately, I think I need to bring my rating down a bit.
I just finished my Chelsea bun and although I took the first bite and I could tell it was sweet,
I finished the entire bun and I was like, this is too sweet. So I'm bringing my rating down
to a 6 out of 10. The first bite is good, but you'll realize, whoa, this is sweet.
And once you finish the whole thing, you're like, oh, this is like too sweet. Like, I don't know.
So 6 out of 10 for the Chelsea buns. They are known here in Cambridge. So if you come,
get a bun, have a bite. But I wouldn't say get more than one bun. It's very, very sweet.
Okay, we are currently at Cambridge Christmas Market and it is quite big. I think it is bigger
than any Christmas market I've been to in London, which is quite nice. I don't think I've been to a
Christmas market this big just yet. It is packed. It is really packed, but it is so nice to like
experience Christmas now, like early on. Well, not early on. It's literally the last day of November,
but everyone's like already so festive here and I love it.
So we're just going to walk around, see the little stalls and maybe grab a bite.
In December, we give our gifts, wishing well to our world. Peace on earth to everyone.
A time to be joyful when all is calm. We just came out of the Christmas market. It is
super packed in there. And although it looks big from out here, I think once I was like
in the Christmas market, like inside that little area, it didn't seem as big anymore,
but I think it's still bigger than the ones in London. So still, it was nice to walk around,
have a bratwurst and yeah, just enjoy our Saturday evening. So now we're going to go over
there and have a beer before we take our train home to London. So let's go to the pub.
Okay, we made it to the pub. I got myself a cider. Guy got a beer. My brother also got a cider.
So we're just going to have a drink. And then after this, we're going to walk over
to the train station and head back to London. So cheers. And see you guys on the next one.
