Too close to home...

I had rearranged the ferry crossing to Thursday at 09:50 with only a £20 admin charge so we decided to go to City Europe supermarket at Calais today and stay at the aire next to the port. 
We bought the usual stuff for the freezer and tinned bits for the cupboard as well as biere and vin.  It was pouring with rain, as it seems to be every time we are here and we got drenched putting it away in Flo!!




The aire is literally on the harbour wall and so we sat watching ferries go in and leave all afternoon!  We also walked out along the harbour wall and along the seafront.  Kids played in a park for ages once the sun came out.  

By the evening the aire got really busy, the boy who was collecting the money was really strict about only letting campervans and motorhomes in!  there were 2 other T25s in the aire; 1 had an old couple in who although friendly to the woman next to us didn't speak to us at all.  The 2nd had a young couple in who didn’t speak to us until the late evening, not been impressed by the T25ers recently!!






When the kids had gone to bed I walked up to the fast food vans and queued for ages to order a chicken baguette from a Moroccan guy, it wasn’t good!!!
