Things could have gone better today. We decided on catching the 0750 and left Canterbury about 0520 giving us loads of time.
We then got the totally expected call that our 17/18 year old cat died in the night, 4 years to the day after my dad passed.
Ferry was good and decision made that Aperol Spritz will be our drink for however long 4 litres lasts for 40 quid. Go to pay at Duty free and credit card declined. Dog forgot to authorize card abroad mode but debit card worked. Traffic jam from cite d"Europe to halfway to Boulogne and they will be there a while. Lunch stop before Rouen before a Decathlon where we found out our pedal arm is not stocked by them. Onward to Caen to another bike shop. It just didn't exist. Located in the middle of a field. Shopping done at Aldi, credit card declined after I told them after first purchase. Cash used. Onto the aire and it is blowing a hooly here. No proper spaces left so I created one and at least 4 more since we got in
A walk along the beachfront was required before an Aldi frozen paella followed by pecan ice cream then we can see what this Aperol is like.
Courseulles sur mer. Home of Juana beach. Aire holds 30-40. Suggest getting here earlier in summer. 40 yards from beach with flats blocking view. Free.
