Same place . . .

. . . but a very different day from yesterday. A lovely sunny morning – perfect for walking by the sea and watching the boat come in.

There may be other ways of crossing the Channel – by train, by tunnel, by plane – but after all these years, I still love travelling on the Dover/Calais ferry, whichever way we are going.

There is something quite magical about watching the water and seeing one coast disappear and another appear. And it is so civilised to be able to walk around, get a cup of coffee, go and watch the sea from the deck, or just sit and read whilst the sea passes by the window.
 
 A very quiet crossing and a long journey home, but home we are at last. And the heating is on!! Not a lot will be unpacked tonight.
