The Anonymous Widower

Night Crossing

I left Dunkirk just as it was getting dark last night.

Maerske Dover at Dunkirk

I did sleep a bit on the trip over as I was in VIP class and the seats are wide enough for a lie down.  But I did have a couple of free coffees and then spent the last few minutes of the crossing on the blunt end of the boat watching it dock at Dover.  So I did arrive fairly refreshed.

Dover Docks at Night

This picture shows the moment we docked.

To our right was the new LD Lines, High Speed Ferry that goes to Boulogne.

We need more like that. Hopefully like they used to be on Harwich to the Hook of Holland.  I use it on my trips to Holland.
