England: Boat ride and Dover


Now we are in England getting ready to celebrate Ethne, Colin's mom, 80th birthday. We drove to a sea town in France called Calais. There has been some difficulties in this town due to a large group of people trying to get to England via the train tunnel and on the ships without passports. There were police everywhere as will as trucks backed up for miles due to the closure of the tunnels. We had no difficulties getting over by boat but we will see how the return trip goes. Here are some pictures of Dover the sea port we arrived in. This area is known for the chalk cliffs as well as Dover castle where lots of stritagic events took place in World War II . 



You can see the castle in the middle of the cliff. On clear days you can see France from the cliffs.
