We left home around 9ish on Tuesday 11th September, met up with Richard and Lou and Julian at Saxmundham and had an uneventful ride down to Portsmouth, arriving about 3.30. After boarding we went and found our cabins - tiny spaces with one of those shower pods, but comfortable.
7.30 the next morning and we were sitting at the stern of the ferry watching dolphins leaping and diving really close to the ferry. A great sight.
We docked at Santander at 5 o'clock that evening and spent ages waiting in the bowels of the boat until they let us off at about 6 ish. Richard and Lou had been waiting at the side of the road for us and were beginning to wonder what had happened.
It rained all the way to our overnight stop at Santillana Del Mar, but at least we managed to find the place in daylight.
