It's all booked!

We're really going though I do keep pinching myself in case I am dreaming!

We depart this green and pleasant land on May 6th, boarding the 12:15 ferry from Dover to Callais in a Rover 75 with our most treasured possessions parted from the majority of our belongings as they will hopefully turn up at the appointed time and place.

We decided a while ago we would take a few days to drive over, having driven across most of France a couple of years ago, we want a relaxed journey with time to explore a few new places. So we decided that our first stop would be Rouen, then onto Bordeaux for the night, the third stop will be Salamanca in Spain which looks like a beautiful city for a wander round. The final two nights we're going to Elvas, a lovely hotel, a converted convent in the medieval walled town. Then three hours on the road and we'll be home!
