DFDS Ferry to Calais.
Once off ferry (10 minute wait while boat went under bridge) found d940 , I dipped my wheel in the sea as you’re supposed to do in all the blogs but it didn’t go as planned! sea covered my feet as well!
Just off the ferry, so dipping my wheel in the sea
The sea had other ideas
Saw horses not wanting to go in sea; lovely riders though.
Overtaken by two grannies and a dog in a basket on d940 but got them back downhill.
Found velo4 and lost it again, ended up following old biddies on elecs to headland and then re-found d940.
Just relaxing with a Ricard after my delicious rare steak at Hotel Samoria, Audinghen opposite my campsite. Another great day complete.
