Most of our students turned out to be done with exams a week before their return date. This gave us an opportunity to organize one more trip, one we originally though we couldn’t fit in: to Hadrian’s Wall. First we visited the Vindolanda excavations (site of the adventures of the Latin mouse "Minimus"), and after that we hiked a distance of the wall, from the Roman fort at 
Housesteads to Caw Gap. Without a doubt, this was one of the most spectacular parts of the wall, offering some impressive views. Every half hour or so, we were hit by a rainstorm, that you could see approach from far away. Despite the chilly weather, it was a rewarding day.
