The P&O Ferry departs |
Once on board I took a look at the map of the Pride of Kent to decide what to do first. My stomach started rumbling and I thought that breakfast should be the first port of call at the International Food Court, but before then I thought it would be best to go up on the deck to say goodbye to Dover as the ferry sailed away. ![]() Aboard the Pride Of Kent – what to do first?
The morning chill was still in the air and I’m glad I had a warm coat with me. I stepped out into the open deck and was greeted with the white cliffs of Dover on one side and the open sea on the other. A few families were gathered by the handrail with the kids excited to look out as the ferry started moving. To be honest I was rather excited too. ![]() Looking out as the mist envelopes the cliffs
As we pulled away the mist rapidly covered the land until shores of England were no longer visible. It was quite a sight to see, and I’m happy that P&O allow the passengers up on deck to witness it. Just before popping back downstairs to grab some food I noticed the seagulls who had decided to join in the trip and were flying alongside the ferry. I guess it’s not only the passengers that enjoy the ride, but the gulls as well. ![]() A seagull tags along for the journey
