Hi Gaby,

sounds like a great trip, would love to join in but I have a conference in Essen which ends on 8th. Thought I could take the car and meet you all in Oberwesel with the wife flying to Dusseldorf to meet up. Only problem is I cannot guarentee that I will attend the conference at this early stage :frowning:

I was looking at the ferries and Dover - Dunkirk gives a shorter drive to the first/last stop.

When I get commitment on the conferenceattendance I will check back with you on availability.
