Hi everyone and a big happy birthday to Kate today!
Today has been lovely with the weather improving throughout the day. It is still very windy but without the strong gusts of the last couple of days.
Calais came to life this afternoon when the sun came out (today's photo is of the beach this afternoon). I thought it would be rude not to join in & have another chocolate crepe, tee hee!
I'm settled into my lovely hotel room tonight. And I've located where the Bike Bus will pick me up early tomorrow morning (although maybe not so early now, they were delayed a couple of hours on their outbound journey south with the bad weather across the Channel). The Calais pick up point is in the car park of a cash and carry called Boozers! It will be interesting travelling on a coach filled only with cyclists. I'll let you know how it goes!
Enjoy your extra day off tomorrow everyone!

Oh my lord, sounds like you had one of the most disturbed nights ever there - that is a lot of wake-ups, rivals even Max's best efforts ;o)
ReplyDeleteVery glad you're in a hotel tonight and it will be interesting to see who else is frequenting the car park of Boozers early tomorrow morning. Enjoy comparing cycling stories on your way back hope you find some interesting company! France will miss you

Well done Frenchie! Well you are a bit with all this cycling throughout France! again I salute you and I think I would have cried pitching up your tent in this weather -referring to the windy rainy night in bad campsite soil!- But hey not a chance I'll challenge myself on a bike: Went for a 2 hours ride with Bob a couple of weeks ago in sunny Hull: my bum still remembers!! Would rather try crossing the channel swimming! hey that's an idea for my 40th! ... We'll see. I'm too soft! And It would be winter waters ! I am looking forward to seeing you so I'll join the queue. Take good care of yourself. Love. T xxx
