We’ve just got back from France, where we camped for the weekend with my Mum and Dad. They’re just finishing their 2008 Grand European Tour and hadn’t seen Laurie for around four months.
We went down to Kent on Thursday night after work, then caught a ferry from Dover first thing Friday morning. We were with the Grandparents in time for lunch. They’d found a nice little campsite next to a river below the walls of Montreuil Sur Mer, Pas De Calais – about 15 miles inland from Boulogne, and around 45 minutes drive from Calais.
Laurie’s obviously grown a lot in four months – Mum required an emergency osteopath session after trying to lift her into the motorhome. Get well soon Mum!
We put up our giant tent next to their giant motorhome, and went into the town that afternoon. The next day we visited Le Touquet, and on the Sunday we mainly looked for the car keys, also having lunch at the beach.
Lots of rosé, steak frites and moules frites were consumed, and we got the ferry back on Sunday night (eventually, after missing the first one).
The rest of the photos are here.
