Kent and Crossing the Channel (3rd time)

From Eton we travelled to Hythe in Kent and had a wonderful site by the sea (although we did not venture that far…). We did catch up with some long time friends Les and Carol who have a daughter Jo (a similar age to Lianne) and two grandchildren. They live in Peasmarsh just up the lane (and a couple of fields) from Paul McCartney. Les is a great gardener and sitting out in the garden on a summers afternoon prior to a pub meal was perfect.

The beer and meal weren’t too bad either.
The following day we set off for France. Tieve and I being a bit more adventurous did a tour of the boat and were rewarded by seeing France first.
Meanwhile the rest of the crew were below decks stocking up on coffee for the journey to Paris. Some even took in a massage.
