shuvonshuvoff motorhome adventures

The night before I was due to get the ferry over to France I booked the  https://www.caravanclub.co.uk/club-sites/england/south-east-england/kent/black-horse-farm-club-campsite/   campsite, so that I did not have far to drive the following morning to make my crossing. The campsite managers were so welcoming and let me stay in an area of the site that is specifically for people heading off to get ferries, so that they are not worried about disturbing other campers if it is a particularly early start. All the facilities at the site were excellent and clean. They gave me a printout of the best ways to get to the Port of Dover, which was very helpful. As I drove into the port I was nervous. I had to concentrate hard to work out which lane I was in. Thankfully it was all relatively easy and I joined the queue to board the boat.   I drove onto the ferry without any problem, parked up and headed for the Club lounge. It's worth paying the extra to get a nice meal, drinks and love...

For a long time now I have been wanting to go over to France in my motorhome Dora the Explora. The thing stopping me was, fear. I was afraid of driving my motorhome on the other side of the road. I did not know what area to head for and I was afraid of booking camping spots. Would I be safe?  Over the last four years since I retired at 60, I have been a pro-age campaigner travelling Great Britain and Ireland. I constantly encourage women to face their fears and have their adventures. Now it was my time to show that I am up for the challenge of heading to France in Dora. I often say that my plan is to have no plan and to go with the flow. This time I knew that I did need to formulate some kind of plan to make me feel a bit safer.  The 'Caravan and Motorhome Club' were brilliant helping me book my ferries from Dover to Calais. I also got more peace of mind by booking my Red Pennant Insurance and European Breakdown cover   https://www.caravanclub.co.uk/insurance/overseas-hol...
