After last year's satnav failure we took the same route to Hull, and hopped on the usual ferry. Not the last car to board this time. Not rushing all the way from the border to the boat.
Instead we travelled like adults, sharing the driving, stopping to buy a gourmet picnic (Tesco - Carlisle), and heading to a town to the west of Brussels...
Off to Herge town, to hunt down the front-door of the Tintin museum. Road works not withstanding, and a distinct similarity to cumbernauld, meant the we parked some way away and walked the last bit.
We we treated to many many (many) facts about Herge and his creation, and it was facinating.
Here is Thompson and Thomson in the 2cv. I think we have this model at home.
We had a great time.
