It was a 5am start today to catch the ferry from Jersey to Granville in France. A much nicer town than St Helier. We were only there for a couple of hours before catching our train to Paris.

Th rest of the day was watching Olympics on TV getting ready for the next 6 days of attending 10 Olympic events.
