any advise grateful.
we ahave 3 kids so i am slightly worried bout how long it will take to drive form calais.

A tip about filling your car up, if possible stop for petrol in Luxembourg, if you are on the motorway there is a petrol station not long after you drive out of Belgium into Luxembourg, we find it has the cheapest petrol in all of the Benelux countries and Germany.
we prob going on saturday. arriving in calais at 11ish (am)
We're in Scotland and have regularly used the Rosyth to Zeebrugge ferry (I assume Hull to Zeebrugge would be your option). Zeebrugge to Trier is about 6 hours. We did that journey with a 2 1/2 year old no problem. Our theory has always been to spend the time on the boat rather than in the car as the children have the freedom to move rather than being strapped in car seats. The year after we were near Trier, we took a 3 1/2 year old and an 8 month old to Lake Annecy in the Alps from Scotland via Zeebrugge and again it wasn't a problem.
