TRIPS - Almost on the way home :)


Only 2 days left before we start our moving-trip from Ireland to Spain. Today is the last day with internet connection as tomorrow we will close all the supplies (gas, electricity and internet), so we will be ready to leave on Tuesday.

As we will have the touring caravan with us, we will drive pretty slowh (around 70-75km/h). We're not on a hurry and we prefer to go slow and safe; as we also have our two dogs with us and we need to stop to feed them and let them move a little.

The plan is the following:

Tuesday, 29th May.
- Departure from home in Cork (IE) at about 15:30.
- Arrival to harbour in Rosslare (IE) before 19:30.
- Boarding Ferry at about 20:30.
- Ferry Departure at 21:30.

18 hours sailing from Rosslare (IE) to Cherbourg-Octeville (FR).

Wednesday, 30th May.
- Arrival at about 15:30 in Cherbourg (FR).
- Departure by car from Cherbourg (FR) around 16:30.
- First stop after 360km, around 21:40, just after Nantes (FR).

Thursday, 31st May.
- Second stop after 334km, around 02:55, close to Bordeaux (FR).
- Third stop after 472km, around 10:10, after Perpignan (FR).
- Fourth stop after 463km, around 17:15, close to Burriana (ES).
- Fifth stop after 327km, around 22:25, in Murcia (ES) to visit a dear friend.

Friday, 1st June.
- Fifth stop after 248km, around 02:55, close to El Ejido (ES).
- Arrival to El Puerto de Santa María (ES) after 426km,around 09:30.

Total distance from Cherbourg to El Puerto: 2630km (slow speed + all the stops it's around 41h on the road).

On Friday, as soon as I have internet I will publish something on Facebook to let the friends know we arrived home safely. :)

Soon I'll update the Trip section with some nice pictures of the journey. ^_^

¡See you soon!
