We decided to stay an extra night in Cambridge to give us time to see the town and also watch the Rugby Wallabies v. All Blacks. The town was founded as a Military settlement at the navigable limit of the Waikato River in 1864. There are a number of 18th and 19th Century buildings remaining and it attractive town. We walked into the town, via the Victoria Bridge it is the oldest surviving bridge in Cambridge. It opened in 1907 but with the increasing traffic it became necessary to add footpaths in 1924. It had a spruce up in 2007 for its 100th Birthday but is now closed to heavy traffic for safety reasons and to help preserve it. Town was quite busy as it had a Sunday Market in the town centre. It was a typical Sunday market with lots of junk, but some very nice home made crafts (I bought a lovely Sunflower sundress for Mia). The shops were old style arcades along the main street and the stalls were set up under the arcades. The town is surrounded by stud farms and there is an Equine Stars Walk of Fame consisting of mosaics of Cambridge bred winners embedded in the pavement along the main street. Chris was not very impressed with the rugby, and it was a draw.
