We had lunch in a small town just south of Le Mans called La Fléche - my last Andouillette of the holiday!
We got to the ferry port at Calais on time but the queue of traffic was moving very slowly. It took ages to get to passport control and then onto P&O Ferries check-in. We had arrived at the port at 7pm (latest check in was advertised as 7.25pm) for the 7.50pm ferry. We didn't get to check in until after 8pm and we were told that technical problems meant things were late. We were booked onto the 10.30pm ferry and told it was already running 30 minutes late. We eventually got onto a ferry and left just after midnight, meaning we left Dover around 1.45am.
This was a rather unfortunate end to what had otherwise been a fantastic holiday. The worst part about it was the total lack of communication and apology from P&O so were effectively just left sitting in the car for hours. A complaint has been made!
