Well after a heart breakfast we packed the car, the strange thing was that when we packed the car for the second time we had far more space in the trunk than before, most odd, however this was good and we headed following the SATNAV hoping it would take us the right way to Calais. The journey to Calais was uneventful and the weather was still nice and we arrived at about 12.30 in time for our table reservation at the Restaurant Au Cote D’Argent which is right on the shoreside and next to the Port and so you can have dinner and watch the ferries come and go.
The Restaurant specialises in seafood and was not full when we arrived but by 13.15 was fully booked and you could understand why as the food is excellent with great service and with lovely views

A short while later we boarded on the same ship that we cam on and headed back to Dover and this time the journey back took much longer due road works and so it was almost two hours to get home but we made it home OK and in the evening had a rest and watched the Abu Dhabi F1 race which we had recorded.
And so to bed and it was a really nice couple of days and next year we may visit the ARRAS Christmas fair as the steward on the P & O Ferry had been to Lille, Arras and Bruges and strongly recommended Arras, so will look at that for next time.
Oh well that's it for the moment…
