Thurs 14th

The main reason for being in Folkestone was a railway not far away which is a one-third scale steam railway. It operates from Hythe through Dymchurch, St Mary's, New Romney and on to Dungeness. We were the first in the carpark which is unusual for us and had to wait an hour till it ran and by that time the Kids starting arriving. The first group were so excited. It was an hour ride to Dungeness which is also where there is a nuclear power station now but it is on an area that used to be underwater eons ago and it is very flat and nothing but pebbles but never the less people have homes out there a bit more sparse closer to the end of the peninsula. There wasn't a lot to see there so we caught the same train back. It was there for 20mins. We then got off at New Romney to see a model train exhibition and arrived back at Hythe around 2.30. Again by this time it was time for a siesta, but of course I am writing this instead. Not sure where dinner is tonight.
