Last night at 8:45pm suddenly engine noise in the line, some had already gone to sleep. Unbelievable, it continued. Luckily, I had already cooked and we were ready to leave immediately. The border clearance was a bit tedious, then we were allowed to drive to the port area to spend the night. This morning at 5:30am knock knock, let's go on the ferry. And now take a deep breath. We made it to set foot on European soil. After getting off the ferry, we will first follow the others in a convoy. Mistake! The first one got lost. In the next roundabout, the police came from behind. We managed to exit the roundabout in time. Otherwise, we didn't have any checks today. Everything at the gas stations is done only through the night window. The highway is pretty empty except for the trucks. We are now standing at a highway rest area to spend the night and hope to make good progress tomorrow. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures today. We are only allowed on the highway. Many of those who stood in line yesterday are still there. Because Spain has apparently closed the border today. We're keeping our fingers crossed for everyone to make it across. They have been standing there since about 12:00 yesterday.
