For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night

This month we have this amazing event in Cambridge: the Shakespeare festival (this is as British as it will get for me). There are eight different plays shown in the beautiful gardens of various Colleges for a couple of weeks. You can go there with your friends, bring food and have a picnic while you watch the performance. And all of this under the open sky!


We are incredibly lucky with the weather at the moment, it is even comfortable to sit only in a t-shirt until the end of the play!


It is such a fantastic atmosphere!! The gardens are beautiful, the temperature is perfect, you have great food and drinks that you are sharing with your friends and the actors and their costumes are amazing! So far we have seen A Comedy of errors, Cymbeline and today Romeo and Juliet (see the cast in the picture above) and they have been really, really good (my favorite so far was Comedy of Errors). So to put it in today's words: 

Parting is such sweet sorrow that I shall say goodnight till it be morrow
