A simple but tiring day going home. A short drive from Arras to Calais and the impressively well organised and efficient Eurotunnel. We were in good time and managed to jump forward to the earlier train than the one we had booked and departed exactly on schedule at 10.50. Fortunately, the traffic on the M2 was flowing reasonably well so via the Dartford Tunnel, M25, M11, M1 and A14 we arrived at Tytherington at about 4.30pm to Ann's warm smile. A quick turn round then it was M1's turn to press on home to an equally warm welcome from Annie and Joanne. How quickly the final days of our marvellous journey had disappeared but now it was time to return to normality and savour all our experiences and memories. This blog has been an important aspect of the trip as has McD's daily diary. Without recording our experiences, it would have been all to easy for places, people and events to become an imprecise, kaleidoscopic blur. This way, we have reference points which are important to the two tourists and, we hope, have been of value to any friends who have followed our travels. Cheers.
