This postcard comes from my recent experience travelling on the overnight ferry to France. For peak holiday times, you have to book very early to get a cabin on the overnight crossing from Portsmouth to St Malo. Sarah Trivuncic has published recipes, restaurant and travel reviews on Maison Cupcake since She lives in Walthamstow, East London with her husband and teenager.
I felt slightly queasy just reading that. I am not a fan of ferries at all and like to spend the entire journey on deck avoiding sea-sickness. It's the tunnel and a long boring French drive for me every time. But I admire your courage and your apt reference to K19β¦. I enjoyed reading about your adventure. I love to travel. I've never had an overnight ferry ride. I hope it was worth it in the end. I really enjoyed your telling us all about your adventure.
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and have a great weekend. Oh gosh your post brings back memories of the first weekend away that Nathan and I had when we were We took the exact same journey with Brittany ferries, but their food looks much better now than it did 10 years ago! I seem to remember ham salad and chips being the only edible dishes available.
I hope your next journey is above the waterline and you have a view too Morwenna xo. That took me back too.
We did a similar journey from Portsmouth to Santander a good few years ago and we've also done the St Malo route. It was cheap but we were in with all the lorry drivers who were in the bar knocking back whisky which was slightly worrying.
