The ferry trip yesterday was very pleasant. The boarding procedure was smooth. There was a fine view of Poole from the top deck as we left the harbour. After a few hours we had a fine view of Cherbourg as we entered that harbour. The ferry company's bus took us part way to the middle of the town and we walked the rest of the way to the railway station.
Last year we had a bad experience of a regional train from Lyon to Avignon. We had to squeeze ourselves and bags on and only got a seat after half an hour, This time we had our choice of about 20 seats in the carriage we got into.
Our accomodation is delightful. A lovely large room looking out over a small courtyard with the cathedral spires not far away. The old paved floor is not even, the bed is comfy and the new small kitchen and bathroom have been added in an interesting manner with several skylights.
This morning, Sunday, we enjoyed a delicious breakfast and then went on a tour to Honfleur and other places.
