So we put the car on a train and we put the train under the sea. It seems very very wrong but I have to admit the channel tunnel is an impressively easy process, just follow the signs and the bilingual instructions and you will find yourself in Calais in next to no time. A slight concern is that as soon as you are off the train you are straight onto a motorway and haying to remember which side of the road to come off at but I m sure I will suss that one out over the next week or so.
Tonight we are in the Holiday Inn in Calais Coquelles. Nothing special but serves it's purpose in providing an easy destination (less that 5 miles from the exit of the tunnel) and a comfy bed for the night. Tomorrow will be more interesting as we know where we want to end up but have no real thoughts on which route to get their. I suppose that one might be made up as we go along. Need to thing about driving on the right as well, suspect that might be more tricky.
