Well we're on our way.
After a silky smooth and sunny channel crossing, we rolled into Calais full of optimism and a full English. Then we got lost in Calais - a pattern we repeated throughout the day. The French roads are so much better than ours - but someone seems to have nicked all their road signs …
After a lunch of croque monsieur in St Omer, we pressed on. It rained - and we ended up doing 70 miles - not the 55 planned. So much for my great sense of direction. Bike and legs holding up well - and now we're about to have three or four evening meals. In very good spirits - and looking forward to seeing more rural France tomorrow. But hopefully not quite so much of it!
