To the ferry, Dieppe France

After saying our goodbyes to Dean and Vic, we followed the river to Eu. Here we did our washing, filled up on booze and food, dumped our grey and black water and filled up with gas and fuel. We also managed to find some water a bit further on.

So now we could spend the rest of the day to meander our way to the ferry in Dieppe (checkin was 4:30pm for 6pm departure, cost us €200 with 20% seniors discount). 

We drove through Mers les  Bains with its mansions lining the streets, having been popular with the rich Parisiens back in the day.

Le Treport is a very busy tourist destination especially on a lovely sunning day. The market was in town which always brings in people too.





We continued on stopping at a couple of small pebble beaches that were dwarfed by the huge white cliffs. 



We have a quick drive through Dieppe. 



Then lined up at the dock. We get our passports checked and border security inspects Bluey’s shower, under the bed and the cupboards just to make sure we haven’t stowed anyone.






Then it’s a smooth sailing of 4 hours across to Newhaven. We don’t feel up to driving in the dark, so we make use of their free carpark for the night where we mange to get some sleep with our earplugs in.
