In the middle of our stay in London, the idea hit us out of whim, to visit Paris from London (just a curiosity and adventurous spirit of youngsters). We went to the tourist info and asked the price of flight or Eurostar train. In fact the ambition was in vain, as the price was far beyond expectation, supposedly due to the fashion season in Paris. So we discussed over coffee again how to put our spirit in more realistic way, then we decided to at least go and see the boarder between UK and France. We headed for Dover.
We admired the famous White Cliffs of Dover and the old castle, but what really excited us was beautiful and pastoral scenery toward Kent and peaceful seashore at Straits of Dover. The water was so calm and there were some local families walking around the coast or listening to the radio. We stared at the ferry which seemed come over from Pas de Calais making quietly its way into the harbor, and finally felt so satisfied.
