The Chunnel is brilliant but anticlimactic. The time taken from driving off the freeway in England, to driving onto the freeway in France can be as short as 45 minutes. The shortest similar time on the Dover-Calais ferries is realistically about 3 hours plus. After the train stops and the doors open, from moving off in first gear, to freeway on-ramp is about 30 seconds! Forget the hovercraft - outdated slow ;-) You want to go on the sea cat: <http://www.seacontainers.com/passenger/lg_seacat_hales_2.htm> -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
