9th August Journeys to and from France with Ekatarina
Early in the morning we arrived in Dover and waited to board the boat.
It is always hard to believe that so many cars, lorries and trucks could possibly fit onto one boat.
But our trusty red Berlingo was soon safely aboard.
Our boat, The Pride of Kent, glided smoothly out of the harbour.
We enjoyed views of the white cliffs with Dover Castle at the top.
Looking back to the harbour wall.
Goodbye England!
Ekatarina and I explored the boat together. We found a corner that I had never noticed before - a children's art corner. Ekatarina visited this corner twice on the journey and coloured some lovely pictures.
Au Revoir France!
This picture was taken from the boat at the start of our journey back home. We could see the cliffs of Cap Blanc Nez where we had walked earlier in the day. There will be pictures of Cap Blanc Nez on the next blog posting.
It was almost dark as we arrived back in Dover.

Ekatarina enjoyed the fresh open air on the stern of the boat.
