Brugge Photo Post #1 - The Journey There

Mum-Ra always insists on going to Europe by coach and it takes bloody hours. Still, I spent a large portion of the journey asleep so it wasn't too bad. I always love going on the ferry as you can guarantee that no matter what the weather, the channel will be rough as hell and I love bopping up and down. On the way down I had time to explain to Mum-Ra all about the joys of Jamie Bamber. She was already familiar with him as it's her Hornblower DVDs I watched (really need to give them back and buy my own at some point). I then explained to her how I'd set up
archielives. She picked up on the idea very quickly and wrote Archie Lives on my bottle of water. LOL.
I saw this absolutely adorable stuffed toy cat on the ferry. It had the biggest blue eyes and of course I immediately wanted to call him Archie. Haven't bought one yet but will pick one up on the way back.
Didn't take long to get to the hotel after we got to Calais and it seems really nice. The food is amazing and I expect to get very fat while I'm here. Full day in Brugge tomorrow. Should be good

Our ferry

The white cliffs of Dover

Dover castle

Me looking windswept

Another ferry

Water

The British Flag *salutes*

I don't know what this is but it looked cool. Something James Bond would have

The now infamous bottle of water
Next lot of photos to come after I've been into town and bought some lunch
