Friday 27th January 2017





It was nice and sunny in Portsmouth when we got up this morning. Here's the view from our van. We're in the centre of town right by the docks.  


  

Unfortunately it got quite murky as we headed for home. We stopped off for a cooked breakfast along the way. It's a long time since we last visited Le Petit Chef.




We got home about 14.15 and I was scandalised to discover what a mess the mole(s) had made of my nice lawn.




I have this solar powered mole repelling device stuck in the lawn and it is frankly worse than useless - I think it encourages the mole(s).

Today we traveled to our home in Widecombe a distance of 152 miles (245 kilometres).


Our journey which started on 4th December 2016 lasted 55 days. We covered 3599 miles (5794 kilometres) in our camper van plus the ferry crossings from Poole to Cherbourg and Santander to Portsmouth. I'm not sure how far we went on our bikes but we did get good use of them.

Many thanks to anyone who has taken an interest in this blog and special thanks to those of you who have commented.

Best wishes, Roger.

Welcome back Roger and Ann. Thank you for sharing a most wonderful trip, opening up my eyes to all sorts of wonderful places, architecture, art and staggering natural beauty. The photos were truly marvellous and gave a great sense of place, blue skies and with never a sign of bad weather. A very long drive indeed! Well done to both of you.
Love,
Anne-Marie
