Calais beachhead

A sleepy seaside town from all appearances, Although it had a very nice stretch of beach that wasn't very busy at all. I stayed at a pretty cheap and basic hotel across from the station on my first stop here and saw what there was to be seen. On my second stop here I stayed at the youth hostel which was quite nice. 25 Euro for a private room with shared bathroom. also ended up with a free drink and internet as I did an interview for a journalist. Didn't get to laze on the beach as I had planned though as there was a bitter wind coming off the sea from England, does not bode well for my return.
