The great cliffs of Dover, not so great.

Today was D-day (departure day).

We had loads of fun on our way. We ended up at the wrong ferry (Norfolk) because we bravely followed the Car Ferry signs. That was not what we were supposed to do because we ended up in Dunkerke instead of Calais. So we had to drive for another 25 km.

After finally reaching the ferry we had to wait for more than an hour (better early than late). We had to go to a series of check-ups. They even stopped us for a personal check-up because they could not identify us. The always thought "OMG 6 chicks in a van.". I found that really offensive. I'm only half a chick you know. On the ferry our darling little Tanja made an ouchie (culture wise, movie underneath but listen carefully the sound isn't that great due to the wind!). Although the ride was windy and the ship was a bit well rocking it was nice to have done the ferry once in my life.

As you can see our cameras have been working non stop. Even now we are still taking pictures/making moves (nice bribery, ...).

Exiting from the ferry and driving on the left was a challenge too especially when it was time for roundabouts. When it was Natalia's turn to drive everybody became sick (more due to the burger king than the driving but is still up for discussion). We sang along Disney Songs and those kept our drivers awake.

When we arrived in Desford it was snowing. Next to that Anna, Claire, James and little Dan greeted us to their mum's house. They were really nice. They made us food, helped us unpack, cared for our every need. They are angels in the true sence of the word. Afterwards we had some really good lasagna and discovered our rooms. I have this beautiful single bedroom thrice the size of my own room. A huge table to play pokemon on (if anyone wants too) and a 2 person bed for me alone. After dinner we unpacked, discovered that Natalia is really accident prone (almost knocking down a painting), the accent here is a bit difficult to follow and that the house is really really huge and cosy. I want to life in this place later. (Pictures will follow later.)

I look forward to school tomorrow although it will be a tricky ride to the school with all the snow.

I do have to say I miss everyone at home, I hope my friends and best friends are having fun without me and that my darlings have won the Belle-France in Lille. (@Kristel: tnx for the text).
Signing off now because we planned a nice little evening tea/coffee.

Love Timmy
