aujourd'hui, il pleut

After yesterday's epic (journey|hangover) we were all pretty tired so it didn't take too long to get everyone off to bed and to sleep. Up at 4am to get out of the flat and London before the traffic started and the South Circular became impassable. That plus the 8:30am ferry sailing...

The weather was glorious: sunny and warm even early on, bumped into some friends on the ferry then off into France. At which point the weather turned.

The journey can be best described as somewhat fractious, wandering, nauseous and ultimately wet. When we finally got to the campsite the rain was absolutely pelting down. Fortunately we didn't have to pitch the tent; small mercies!

Fortunately the inauspicious start didn't continue...
