Ferry crossing

Hi Elliott here, today we boarded the ferry from Plymouth to Roscoff. I was a bit anxious to get on the ferry but once we got on, took our pills and put on our wrist bands we were fine. (It was a very calm crossing as well). We watched “Elio” in the cinema which was on the boat. 4.5/5 movie. But as always there was a catch… we were sat next to some big ass wipes, two of them were teenagers and one was about six. The teens obviously didn’t want to be there but their parents probably made them take the little one. Their phones kept lighting up, all the chairs were creaky and the little girl wouldn’t stop talking and getting up and down. The good thing is that they left half way through the movie. Some people were in our booked seats in the lounge area, but we let them have them because they were a big family and didn’t have seats altogether and we found other places to sit. The quiet area was very nice because the boat was very noisy. All in all a good crossing.

After waiting to disembark the ferry for 45 minutes, none of our 3 bladders (that’s 1 each) would last the full drive to Saint Nazaire so after about an hour’s drive, we found some Tesla chargers at a town called Quimper which was on the route. We didn’t need to charge but you may as well when you are stopped. No need to wait for the car to charge you see, it is always charging while you do other things.
As the food on the ferry was pretty disgusting, Elliott was a bit peckish, so we nipped over the road to KFC so he could get a burger and a drink and we could all unload our bladders.
With everyone and the car feeling satisfied, we completed the journey to Saint Nazaire. All beautifully tarmac’d, smooth with no potholes.
Top efficiency from the car again, around 4.5 m/kwh at an average speed of 60ish mph.The Mercedes would have been at low 3’s here.Read more
