A reasonably steady
crossing, despite the Captain's warning of moderate to rough seas,
and a comparatively civilised start to the day - we were woken at
5.30 and disembarked at 6.30 but our body clocks were still an hour
ahead - and we were back on home ground.
Before actually
heading for home we needed to make our way north to Norfolk to see
Geoff's mum and collect the car which has been housed in her garage
while we have been away. We had an easy journey there from Harwich,
stopping off for a Little Chef breakfast at 7.30 (which is a good
time to get fast service, it would seem.) Haven't had one for years,
and it was actually very good. Then the pleasure of listening to
Desert Island Discs, and a stop at Salhouse for a walk down to the
Broad and back. All in all an excellent start to the morning which
reminded us that England and things British are pretty good to come
back to!
Coffee and a catch up with Geoff's brother followed,
and then a visit to Geoff's mum, who was pleased to see us and in
good spirits.
We then drove the two vehicles home, and
although we didn't drive in convoy managed to arrive home within two
minutes of each other. Which was nice.
I plan to return to
the blog when I have had a chance to absorb all that we have done
over the weeks. But it is worth noting that my iPad survived and,
with careful use, the gas lasted!
Now a quiet weekend
adjusting is required, I think, before a new life takes over.
