On the 15th of February I woke up at 3.00 am in order to get ready and pack for my trip. We had to be near high school at 3.45 am. When everybody had arrived, we finally left to go to England! We had a few hours in the bus and we arrived in Caen at around 6.30 am. We had to wait for the departure of the boat. Around 8.30 am we crossed the Channel. On the boat, to kill time, we listened to a lot of music, we had a tour in the little shops, we ate our picnics, we went outside on the deck  and we had fun and laughed together. We arrived in Portsmouth, really tired but still excited. We had to travel more  to arrive to our final destination.  Finally, the bus brought us to Newton Abbot where our host families were waiting for us. Sofia, Cloe and I met sandy who drove us to her house. Then, she introduced her husband Mark who was immediately really funny. We also met their funny little dog*. We had a little bedroom with a    bunk bed and a single one. Our room was reassuring and welcoming. We all had dinner, Mark had cooked a typical English meal which was a roasted. He explained that English people usually have a roasted on Sunday night, it’s composed of beef with some vegetables like carrots, spinach and also sweet potatoes, it’s served with a little choux pastry. We chatted a lot with Sandy and Mark who were extremely sweet, I really liked them from the beginning. We got to know each other and I think we chatted for an hour or more! We were really tired so we got to our rooms, had a shower and went to bed, we fell asleep really quickly, we were exhausted!
