England, my England!!

A day early to celebrate St. George's Day, but was I ever so glad to see those white cliffs of Dover. After a VERY long night travelling through Germany, Holland ( nearly called to see you, Orchid! Saw the sign for Amsterdam!), Belgium and France we eventually arrived at Calais for the ferry, which was surprisingly quiet. Had a hearty full English breakfast, calm crossing and landed back on English soil - a week later than intended!
The road from Dover to London was busy, but the drivers did well to get us to Victoria Coach Station only about half an hour late. This was miraculous, as I don't think any of them had driven to London before, and, only for the navigation from one of the passengers, did they find the way!!
Taxi across London, train up to Liverpool, picked up the car at Echo's house, said a quick 'good bye' and thanks for a memorable trip and I was home by 8.30!!
Oh- what a lovely bed!!
