Today’s update on Kulaksiz 5.
It was raining! We decided to go to Dover. On the way the main road was “closed” but no information how else to get there, so a left turn, a drive through a lot of very pretty villages and thankfully we guessed correctly and eventually ended up in Dover. It would have been helpful to have had diversion signs. We went to De Bradelei Wharf and bought some things and then on to Dover Castle which is another English Heritage site. We have now more than covered the cost of our 15 month ticket. Of course we have been to the Castle before but now there is a new “Operation Dynamo”, where more of the underground tunnels have been opened up and a very good display about the Second World War. But walking back up from the tunnels to the car, the heavens opened and we got soaked!
There are usually excellent views from the castle but unfortunately yesterday it was all a bit grey.
Thought for the Day –
The sea is calm tonight,
The tide is full, the moon lies fair
Upon the straits:- on the French coast, the light
Gleams, and is gone: the cliffs of England stand,
Glimmering and vast, out in the tranquil bay.’
(Matthew Arnolds “Dover Beach”)
