Made it home shortly before 22:00. It took 1 year to plan my road trip to Norway and now it is all over. <\/strong><\/p>\n

I had a great breakfast at the B&B this morning, and left shortly after to get on the road. Before heading for Calais I drove 20 minutes up the road to Renesse for a last walk on the beach.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The journey to Calais from Schouwen-Duiveland is quite straight forward – I can do it without sat nav now – I just head for the Western Scheld toll tunnel, shortly after I cross in to Belgium and then I just head to the motorway (either via Ghent or via Zeebrugge – I went via Zeebrugge today) then follow signs for Calais.<\/p>\n

It does take time though – I did it today in just under 4 hours. Got to Calais in good time, checked in, and boarded the ferry. 90 minutes later I was on the road, heading for home (via a quick 15 minute stop at Grandma’s care home). Relatively clear run barring a little traffic on the M20 and M25.<\/p>\n

This just about rounds off my travels for the year – only got 1.5 days left to use between now and December – not enough time for another long road trip but Northern France, Belgium and the Netherlands are in range if I want a long weekend towards the end of the year – as is most of the UK.<\/p>\n

Next year: Greece – 3 weeks, at the end of May, beginning of June – travelling down through Bavaria and in to Austria, then through Italy to take the ferry from Venice. Better start saving.<\/p>\n

Work tomorrow, and I’m still working an hour ahead (it’s 00:28 on the continent).<\/p>\n

Good night.<\/p>\n
