Dear Daughter,
Papa is in Cambridge in England, and I am in a wonderful cafe called the "Indigo," which as you know is the next to last color of the rainbow, visiting the University
here to listen to an important person talk about some very weird stuff about
our Universe in honor of a very important person Papa knew many years ago.
Cambridge is a beautiful city, with a river that runs along
it, called the Cam. In fact, that is where the name comes from, it designated a
Bridge over the River Cam, that someone decided long ago to call it the
Cam-Bridge.
It is like the story about where the name Antwerpen may have
come from that Papa likes to tell people. Remember the statue in the center
that has Brabo throwing the hand of the giant Antinoos in the Schelde? That
might be the origin of “hand werpen,” or to throw the hand in Dutch. But,
nobody is really sure about that one.
This is also where Aunt Rachel went to school many years ago
and maybe one day she can show you the college she went to as well.
I Love You,
Papa
