Carin and I are both Senior High School Principals (in different high schools) and work locally in Cambridgeshire. Carin is a PhD from Gonville and Caius College Cambridge and I am currently studying for a Doctorate at Clare Hall, Cambridge. In the Summer of 2012, we shall be travelling with our two youngest children, William 14 and Andrew 12. We may also be joined by our older children but they are at University and have yet to finalize their plans for travel and work in 2012.
St Ives is a small market town on the banks of the Great River Ouse very close to the University City of Cambridge and only 1 hr and 20 minutes by car from London. St Ives has an original medieval bridge (150 metres from our house ) and was the home of Oliver Cromwell whose army defeated Charles I in the English Civil War 1642-1646.
There is also very good public transport from St Ives to Cambridge by bus and to London by train from nearby Huntingdon.
