A Magnifique Journey to France
Our French adventure began bright and early as we set off en route to Dover, suitcases packed, spirits high and just a little fatigued. With snacks au chocolat in hand and plenty of excitement buzzing around, we practised our bonjour, dreamed of baguettes and crêpes, and prepared ourselves to seas the day as we crossed the Channel. The adventure was officially underway!
