Saturday 14th June Let’s go

We needed to be up quite early as we had booked the 0915 hrs P & O Ferry to Calais and we need to be at Dover by 0815 and as usual Noel likes to be on time so we were up at about 0500 Hrs doing the last minute things. We had left the van on the road overnight so as to not make to much noise early in the morning but we still needed to disconnect the mains electrics and also the security systems.

The journey down to Dover was quite uneventful and the Ferry was quite full. We went straight to the Langhams Brasserie for a good old English egg and bacon breakfast.

Our journey to our first caravan site at Sorel which took about 3 hours to reach as it is just outside of Paris where we stayed, the site was mainly occupied by the Dutch , most of whom seemed to be going home. We had a nice dinner at the site restaurant with a glass of beer which went down extremely well. And so we went off to bed.
