Kensington Place St. Helier, Jersey, Channel Islands, United Kingdom, JE2 3PA, 01534-611111-
... bit. The people are delightful, everyone being quite friendly and helpful. I must admit that sometimes I could not understand them because there is apparently a mixture of English/French/Jersey mix that is used and ordinary blokes on the street calling out to each other are totally incomprehensible to me. The view of the sea is just remarkable. This is one of those places where the boats are sitting on mud at low tide and up to 6-9' of water at high ...

Isle Of Jersey, New Jersey, United Kingdom carpefeline... walking back and the water seems to be much higher and closer to the sidewalk and I notice that there is a portion that is already underwater. A family is on their way out to the castle and having a great time wading through the water but I stop them and make them turn around since the castle is closed. The tide is definitely coming in and I have to take off my shoes to wade through the flooded part, maybe 6 ...
Isle Of Jersey, New Jersey, United Kingdom carpefelineWe got on to the ferry to Saint Malo and Julz was feeling sea sick. Instead of sitting in our club class seats, she chose to spend an hour outside and then the rest of the journey in cattle class right at the back of the ferry!! Si was very supportive x

another nap before heading out for dinner. We walked across the
square to an Indonesian restaurant, the same one that Charlie and I
ate at 5-6 years ago and ordered the “rice table”, an order of
around 20 different dishes that they spread all over your table. A
great meal and the rice table is certainly a treat if you get to the
Netherlands. During the meal ...
... br>years is even bigger to them. I now realized the sacrifice Whitford
made to have us stay for the weekend, while meaning nothing to
Heather, it was big for Whitford. Many times on our visit to Herm,
Whitford ran into to mates and he was certain to remind them that he
wanted to watch the match later and did not want to know the outcome.
We were able to watch most of the first half of the match, Whitford

Then we got on the overnight ferry to Portsmouth...
... IS THAT!! She saved us from having to wake up early do laundry before the ferry to Jersey tomorrow! The room we had was small but well appointed. It had a desk, a fair sized bed and an in-suite bathroom. We also had a balcony with a view, shared with the other rooms in that section but still a good view.
We relaxed out on the balcony while figuring out what to do for dinner. We chose a place called L'Escalier...partly because it looked ...

Later, everyone in the group is preparing ...
Jersey, Channel Islands, United Kingdom beccaboyerSt. Peter Port in Guernsey, Channel Islands was an interesting mix of British and French culture. Street names, architecture, and language are a blend of influences. We toured the main Anglican church and saw with marble statues and tombstones written in French. There was a small street market filled with handcrafted jewelry and pottery, and British pubs that promised to bar patrons who were too rowdy during football games.
