We started off from Shrewsbury on the Friday morning at 10:30am and headed for Dover for our one night stay over at the http://kingsdowncamping.co.uk/ that is a very nice site
Then the following morning we headed for the ferry,
It took us about 6 hours to get to Houlgate,
Well worth the trip. The Bus started to over heat on the way down (bear in mind when we hit the M25 we qued till we got off at the m20 (m26) bloody M25
When we got the the site,
We made ourselfs confy.
The weather was good for the first 5-6 days, but then the rain started. Almost strange that it only rained in the night and not the day!!!
Rahter than give you a full run down, I'll just post pics of the 1007 mile round trip

All in all, we had a bloody great time, even though the van was sloooooooooow!! Still Anita had a lot of wait onboard!!
Can't wait till Spa in September.
1007 miles in total
