OVER WE GO


Dear Milli
So far, so good. Uli got ferry times wrong, so arrived 10mins late. Luckily for us, the good 'ol ferry was running seriously late.
Finding diesel in the vicinity of Dunkirk, with a loaned Tom-Tom, proved to be a little tiresome - could be something to do with the fact we had no idea how to work it. Eventually we pulled up to a teeny place on the pavement. A lady filled Ambi up - €87.00
Stopped for dinner next to the palace in Versailles. Proved a bit of a nuisance winding our way through the narrow streets without such a beast of a van - but we managed... and found FREE PARKING! The food wasn't anything special. In fact, it was quite the opposite.
A gargantuan storm broke out. We decided to chase it down past Orleans, and parked up in an Aire with stunning views across the Auverge volcanoes. Used a lorry to protect us from the wind and rain.
