Tonight we take the overnight ferry from Portsmouth to Ouistreham (Caen) and it is due in port at 07:00 French time on Monday. We have used this route on many occasions and we are usually on the Il de Re by early afternoon. The French motorways are very quiet and as long as we are prepared to pay the tolls progress is normally quick.
Today is also the day for Amberley Open Gardens where local resident open their gardens for visitors to view and to raise money for a charity Action Medical research. It is a biennial event and is always hugely popular and this year even more so as the organisers publicised it widely.
