2nd to 8th Dec in France

WEDNESDAY 2nd Dec and we are on our way to Portsmouth for the 11pm overnight Ferry to CAEN France with our friends Sally & Philip who own a cottage in South Brittany.

We have been going to the cottage with them for some 17 years and we really enjoy it there.

This visit was going to be different as over the last year they have been having extensive alterations done and we were looking forward to seeing it all.

All to soon it was time to pack up and make our way back to Caen for the overnight crossing to Portsmouth and home again. The ferry crossing was very good and we had the lounge to ourselves.
