Day 6

Today has been another slow day - only 80 miles. We wasted a lot of time trying to find quiet roads to Dover and then there was the ferry crossing itself. It didn't help that last night's accommodation was pretty rotten too - another pub/nightclub/b&b...and yes, we know what you're thinking, it was their loud night! The latest club anthems till three in the morning - quality. That music just puts you right off to sleep!
On a more positive note we have arrived in France. The atmosphere here in Calais is great. A real buzz. We're eating at a restaurant called Cafe de Paris and the food and wine is excellent. Goodnight, we're planning a long shift tomorrow so hopefully there will be a higher moleage to report.
