Leaving Portsmouth

We spent half of our last day in Portsmouth saying goodbye to out host families and seeing a few scenic sites. Then it was off on our six hr boat ride across the Channel. I actually slept on the coash ride home but when I got back to St Etienne and saw the snow I felt like I had gone back in time. Everyone else got to come back to the smiling faces of their families and I was off to walk uphill feeling like I was back in December with over a month till I get home. But once I saw my friends that night and went to see local towns with Mary the next day (see next entry) I was glad to have time left.
