Uroš U. Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Finally, after 20 hours of driving, we have arrived in Deauville. The weather is beautiful as well as beaches, but the sea is freezing cold. Today we are resting after this long trip and tomorrow we will start wandering around. Jack, thank you, we will drop by. David Ives, we are almost neighbours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smithy Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 (edited) Just on the ferry looking over the docks. I have counted 23 jeeps, two Bedford QL's and a couple of other bedfords, a dodge weapons carrier, two quads limbers and 25pdrs and a number of other vehicles. We were meant to leave at 8 but I doubt we will be gone by 8.30 at this rate!! Edited June 4, 2009 by Smithy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in the worst case gray and wet time ago day of unloading but fortunately without the crackling of the balls and the explosions on the coast.
