We had a good crossing to Boulogne and watched the sunset on the horizon (the green flash theory is true) and then found a lovely seafood restaurant before driving through France, Belgium and Germany until 3am in the morning. Hard to believe but whilst we passed many McDonalds we struggled to find a motel and ended up staying in an Ibis just outside Cologne. Spent the next day in Cologne and visited the cathedral and unsurprisingly with Rich managed to find a good sushi restaurant for lunch before heading on to Nuremburg where we had a few beers and some traditional german food. Have mastered driving abroad (during the day - leaving the night driving to Rich) and we haven't really had any arguments so far...... Were now in the Czech Republic staying with Rich's mum and dad until Thursday currently visiting the historic Cesky Krumlov.
