The ferry was really fun. The hard part was the disembarkation! For some reason the British immigration was checking everybody's passports, so it was a really long disembarkation.
Then, we waited around for the rental car girl to pick us up. She showed up in a brand new Transit van they just got, because they didn't have our car yet. We made it to the rental car place, and got the Ford Mondeo, and headed to York.
After a few mis-turns and fits and starts with the stick shift in the wrong hand, we made it to Mrs. Kay's house. Len joined us soon afterwords. After several cups of tea, we had cheese toast for lunch.
Mrs. Kay looks great and she says she feels great too. And, Len is his usual friendly self. He helped us change to a smaller automatic vehicle for tomorrow. Mrs. Kay drove us around to get medicine for Mom's cough, then took us by the hotel very close to her house, where she got us an excellent room rate.
After we came back from the chemists, we watched a cheesy reality show called "Coach Trip", and then Kay fixed us a dinner of gammon, sweet corn, brocoli and potatoes, and we had strawberry with evaporated cream for dessert.
After dessert, time to go to the hotel. After struggling with WiFi, here we are on line!
