A Day in Douvres

 In June I took a daytrip with the guides P&J across the English Channel to the port city of Dover. We rented a car for the trip and took the Ferry. It was a great daytrip; we had a brunch on the ferry on the way over, and spent most of our day at the castle. The castle grounds of Dover also have tunnels constructed during the Napoleonic area and used during the Second World War. We took a tour of both the Operation Dynamo and the Underground Hospital tunnels before going up to the castle rooftop for the magnificent view.  We finished our day trip walking along the white cliffs before re-boarding the ferry home.
