We lazed around on Saturday ahead of the journey home which the coach drivers were keen to get started as soon as possible. The kids were exhausted by this stage with many of them having had no proper sleep for several days. The worst part with trying to sleep on the coach besides the general discomfort was the fear of being drawn on, woken up, photographed etc and that meant they couldn't relax.
We set off at 3 and were kept up to date with Saints and their remarkable 6 - 0 victory over Wolves but the biggest cheer came when Argyle were found to have lost 3 - 0 at Ipswich. Not sure why so many of them were pleased about that.
The view over the Pyrenees was stunning and we travelled across some bridge which I ought to know the name of at over 1000 feet above the bottom of the valley. After a brief stop for some food we settled down as darkness fell and Tom Hanks did the trick as the Terminal film quietened the kids down. Boredom can be a great thing.
I spent a few minutes getting them settled and they managed to sleep from 11 - 7 despite several stops on the way. We were back at school for 1.30 and I'd imagine straight to bed for many of the students when they got home.
