| Summary | Week Commencing 28th May 2001 | ![]() |
| Monday | Last day at home. Chaos. Chris and Karen came over for a well-deserved drink in the evening. Then we put our belongings in the hired van, and took them up to storage. Got to bed around 3am. |
| Tuesday | We had intended to be out of the house by 11am to catch the ferry to the Isle of Wight (to say 'goodbye' to Brigid's Mum and to look at her computer). In the end, caught the 5.30pm ferry, had tea, and rushed off again to catch the Le Havre ferry at 10.15pm. |
| Wednesday | Spent most of the day on the road. Arrived with Bill & Julia Ferguson around 6pm. |
| Thursday | Left the car (loaded to the gunnels with our ski gear) at Bon Repos, and flew out from Toulouse. The flight was delayed. Arrived John's Mum about 10pm. Sat chatting to the family until about 2.30am. |
| Friday | Flew from Heathrow to Boston. Collected bikes from Dunbar Eurosports. Stayed overnight in Brockton, Mass. Booked into the Holiday Inn for the night. Absolutely exhausted! |
| Saturday | Left Boston area. Intention stay weekend in Vermont. Stopped Lebanon, New Hampshire, due heavy rain. |
| Sunday | Arrived Montpelier, Vermont. Still raining heavily. |
