Well, we have finally arrived at the start of our mid-life gap year. It’s just after 8pm on Wednesday, and tomorrow morning we hop down the road to Dover for a mid-morning crossing to Calais. Very excited. We’re tucked up in the van on a campsite just a couple of miles outside Dover, waiting for it to be bedtime, so that we can lie awake saying “I’m so excited”…
Since we drove from my parents’ in Lincolnshire, straight here to the campsite in Dover, there’s very little to report for day 1 of our trip. The campsite, Hawthorn Farm, is immaculate and spot on for a pre-ferry overnighter but there’s little of wow to report, aside from the bunnies. Those pesky bunnies ran off when I got even remotely close with the camera, but since I like to put a photo on every blog post, this bunny pic will be it.
A demain!
