Leaving for France tonight

Another busy day, we that's not quite true as we watched the Belgian F1 GP and then a brief rest and we finally left home for the trip to Portsmouth to join the Brittany Ferries car ferry to Caen which leaves at 2245. We left home shortly after 1900 and arrived at the port at about 2015 and there was already a long queue to check in and so we waited for a while and eventually we ready to got thro security, normally with the caravan you get pulled over for a big check over but just the two of us in a car we were waived thro. 

Finally at about fifteen minutes before departure it was our turn to drive on board and we headed for our cabin on the ninth floor which is a long way when there are no lifts close by and carry overnight bags but we found the cabin and settled in for the night.  Well I say the night at they wake you around 0500 as the ship arrives at 0545 UK time or 0645 French time.

And so the bed
