Quick trip to Blighty

With limited ferries/planes we decided to drive over to the UK to pick up Nadine & the children for their annual summer holiday here in La Tranche. Simon would drive over mid-August for his break and they'd all drive back at the end of the month. Well, that was the plan!

We had no option but to take the daytime crossing from Saint Malo to Portsmouth. It's a long journey in the daytime but a little nap in the compulsory (Covid) cabin helped pass the time.

The ferry was practically empty...

...and look where we were to disembark from the boat!

It's only a couple of hours from Portsmouth to Hastings, and someone was pleased to see us. Nadine, Simon and the kids had driven down the day before after booking a great Airbnb caravan.

Next morning these two monsters were vey excited that Mamie & Papy had appeared in the night. (I hope you like the Bet Lynch bed linen!)


It won't be long before Alfie overtakes Mamie in the height stakes.
