"Localised Bobblyness"

This is the technical term for the water conditions we faced on Saturday. Well, we were trying to think positively about the waves we saw crashing against the shore from the train window as we pulled into Dover.

I assured everyone it would be entirely different in the harbour - and it was: flat as a mill pond as long as you were within 10 metres of the wall. Kerry's post below describes the rest of the 1190m between the dock walls pretty well...

Seriously slow going at some points and as for breathing bi-laterally, breathing any way was enough of a challenge.

On the up side - it was very sunny and warm!
