Time travel is a beautiful thing. It's now the 26th April 2015 but having been away from any direct method of updating our journey on here, there has to be a little bit of backdating... 

We begin our 4 month trip today, on the 8th April 2015, as we ride the overnight France bound ferry from Newhaven, UK to Dieppe, FR. We barely made it, told by the lovely woman at passport control in a rather hoarse but friendly tone, '...by the skin of your teeth'. The crossing itself has been uneventful and the allure of the children's play pen, with it's squishy PVC lined floor drew us in and provided a few hours sleep. It was considerably more appealing than the alternatives: 
  • The Bar - hard floor, garish lighting and right next to the exceptionally loud door for the outside smoking area.
  • A Cabin - what? You have to pay for it? Noooooope.   
  • Snore City - the 'quiet' seating area. Upright, uncomfortable and unsuitably shit. 

The kids' squishy play palace was the obvious choice and our climbing expertise made short work of the padlocked gate. An elderly gent tried to join us but was bested by the barrier - win for climbing.

Soon we will be on the road en France with beautiful sunshine and stinky cheese - if we survive the final ravaging torrents of the Channel...
