Ireland 2024 – Day 15

We left Douglas and Isle of Man in the early morning. The roads were almost empty. Quite a difference from the chaos when we arrived.

We had to skip the breakfast at the hotel in order to catch the ferry. So, we had a light breakfast on the ferry. We had booked seats in front of the boat. The views were great snd the sea calm. There were a few fishing boats, many wind turbines, and some gas/oil riggs.

Oil or gas platform?
Heyesham harbour

Once we got off the ferry in Heyesham, we set off towards Harwich. Some 515 km across England. We only had one roadwork with some queues. A quick lunch at a service station and finally an excellent cod & chips at the Pier in Harwich. It’s our goto place for dinner where we’ve been several times.

Mostly highway driving today

We are now waiting to board the ferry to Hoek van Holland. Tomorrow will be a long drive, the plan is to get all the way to Lund in Sweden.
