Calais, France

Well we made it to Calais, France which is the shortest point to Dover, England without much trouble taking the regional trains. Most of the travel backlog due to the Iceland volcano eruption was over with and the planes were starting to fly again.We really had not been affected much by the transit problems although we heard many horror stories from many travelers.

In the distance we could barely make out the white cliffs of Dover although it didn't show in the photo.

We only spent one night here, but enjoyed walking around. It seemed like a sleepy port but from the number of restaurants we could tell that it must be  bustling in the summer.
