On leaving Pegasus Bridge, we went straight to the port of Caën for our ferry to Portsmouth. We were concerned as the weather was bad - wet and windy - and after watching the incoming ferry make several unsuccessful attempts at docking, there was an announcement to say the crossing would be delayed by at least an hour. Eventually we got on board and there was another announcement to say there was a technical fault and there would be a further delay. We left two and a half hours late and it was really rough - the waves crashing against the boat, which was bouncing up and down. Some of us were sick and most of the others felt awful.
We were very pleased to get to Portsmouth but owing to the delay did not get back to school until after 2am. It was a shame that we had such a difficult journey home as the rest of the trip was so great!
