Up at 4.30 am and on the bike for 6.00 am as planned. Weather dry ,calm and very cold. Onto the motorway down to catch the Euro tunnel. Uneventful other than very bad fog and temperature very low ! Had to stop near Oxford and put the rain suits on in an effort to try and keep warm. Fog lifted as we approached M25 and sun started to warm us. Traffic not as bad as I thought and pulled into Euro Tunnel at about 9.40 am. Quick stop to pack the rain suits away and onto the train at 10.20am. Had a good chat with a couple from Northhampton who are on the way to tour round Normandy for a couple of weeks. Pulled into Calis and off without any problems.
Sun shone and temp picked up but Angie still cold, refuelled and with a full stomach continued through Belgium heading for our first nights stop in Leige. Traffic bad around Brussels eventually arrived at hotel at 5.10 local time. Total mileage today 411.
