09.08.13 Return to homestay...

This morning we got up and finished our packing, there was no exercise this morning :(

After we pretended to eat our breakfast - we really were struggling by this stage - there were a lot of emotional goodbyes and promises to keep in touch.  We then piled on to the coach which wasn't quite big enough for the group leading to some quite interesting bag (and person) stacking in the middle aisle.  Almost everyone fell asleep on the ride home were we were met by our homestay families again for our final night with them.

Hannah, Emily and Olivia had lunch before showering, eating dinner and going for a walk in the evening.  Sophie and Vanessa picked up some pottery they had made before camp then went for food and a visit to the fountains in Irkutsk which they hadn't been able to see at the start of the trip.  Alison and Naomi where invited to Marina's home where they had a lovely lunch and met her pet dog which looked like a giant Jack Russell!  After they had eaten they walked back to their flat and chatted through ideas for Moscow with Nastia.

Everyone aimed at an early night as we had to be up very early for the flight to Moscow.
