Europe Today

An early start to the day! Ferry at 8.00 am but needed this time to have breakfast and get the van ready to move - it all takes time! We needed the time because we were the lucky ones to be ushered into a dark shed on the wharf to be searched by British Customs. With nothing to hide - no guns, knives, nor packages from others etc - we were eventually signalled to join the queue for boarding the ferry - first time in many crossing that we had ever been search.

Car deck on Channel ferry - in the view three motorhomes!
It was a little over 2 hours for the crossing - Dover to Dunkirk - well actually the port is about 11 km from the town! We paid a call to the Auchan Supermarket to stock up with some French produce before driving to the Belgium town of Adinkerke. 
Now, that's a lettuce!
After this we moved on to Roeselare and then onto Harelbeke for our over night.
