So we leisurely packed up and then headed in the direction of Devon via The Boddinick Ferry in Fowey to cross the estuary (having rung in advance to ensure It could take motor homes).
The lanes got really narrow & lairy and we kept having to pull over and drive into the hedges (Dave was fine and he was driving – it’s me that stresses) but we eventually arrived at the ferry – which was really picturesque (see below)…
I took some piccies whilst we waited for the ferry and chatted to a nice local man originally from Sheffield and then the ferry arrived…
There was another nice (ferry) man who brought the ramp in really close and tried to direct us on but the tow bar hit the ground and the back wheels of the motor home were off the ground and Dave thus had to reverse back off – which was great entertainment for all the foot passengers waiting to board !!! My Dave (as usual) took it all in his stride and chatted to them all out of the window as he carried out his manoeuvres !!!
We then had to drive BACK up the narrow, lairy lanes and go the long way around the outside of the estuary…
… where we encountered a toll bridge anyway and My Dave was not impressed that because he had the bike on the back, they charged us £4.90 instead of £2 😐
