Ferry to the Uk - Mon

Mon 3rd Nov 2014

Not a bad sleep considering the heavy rain and high winds. Still raining when we woke and the ferry didn't leave until 18.30 so stayed in bed and read our books. By the time we got up and ready the rain had stopped . David walked around outside and watched the boats coming and going. We then walked to a big shopping centre and picked up a few bits. Checked in at the terminal and boarded the Barfleur and headed for Poole. Shame it was dark so no views. We had a meal then went outside ! OMG ! It nearly blew my contacts out and we could hardly stand. It got quite rough! Arrived in Poole Harbour at about 10pm then drove to Christchurch Dorset to our dear friends Val & Malcolm. It was hard and a bit strange driving on the other side of the road after 12 months!!!!! Val and Malcolm had waited up for us so we chatted until 12.30am. So great to see them again. Slept in Priscilla on their driveway as easier. Cannot believe we were in Paris yesterday and are now in the south of England!
