YOLO

Wednesday 1st August –
The simple life!

Loving this Campervan lark! Should have done it 25 years ago. It’s liberating to only have a few possessions with you, surprising what we really need! No stress, just relaxation, meditation and a free spirit

Early start, awake before the sun today to catch the early ferry. A steady sea meant a smooth crossing to France. I waved to The white cliffs of Dover, seeing where I had run last night and said goodbye to the England and the UK for a month!

Nice to be back in France, good roads, no potholes! Headed to Dunkirk to visit the Operation Dynamo museum. Popped into a motorhome service point to top up HaRVey’s onboard water tank.

Headed along the coast towards Belgium, stopping for some supplies. I found a great little spot to park for the night, only 10 min walk from the beach, where I headed to for a swim and sunbathe.

After waking myself up, snoring I think, I was still in the blistering sun, thankfully I’d put on suntan lotion so I didn’t look like a lobster.

Time to head neck to HaRVey and a gentle 3 mile run along the beach. Washed and fed I’m now chilling with the citronella tea light candles burning to keep away the bugs.

Call back tomorrow for further blog updates on our adventures through France
