I know that I'm running horribly behind Libby, who is keeping up fairly well with our journey, but let me step back in time a little to two weeks ago when we visited Dover (of white cliffs fame).
 |
Luckily, much of the trip was on divided highway. Remember
This was my first ever day driving on the left, steering from the right.
|
It was a little nerve-wracking driving on the left for the first time, especially coming out of London on a busy day. Once out of town, though, I pretty much got the hang of it. I still have to think about it when turning, and especially when starting from a parked position on the side of the road.
Dover was beautiful. It was a sunny day and the castle stood out in the distance as did the white cliffs. Here are some of the quick highlights:

| Cliffs from the overlook by the lower car park. |
 |
| Looking past the castle down the hill to the town. |
 |
| Earthworks around the castle. |
 |
| Looking from the top of the castle. |
The main room you see when you enter the castle is done up to look like a working kitchen, with bread, meat, veg (all phony, but a nice illusion on film).

| Simulating a working castle kitchen. |
It was chilly with a strong wind, but the castle was beautiful and impressive
